Producer Manager Jobs in Spring, TX (NOW HIRING)

Fox TV Stations FOX Television Stations owns and operates 29 full‑power broadcast television stations in the U.S. These include stations located in 14 of the top 15 largest designated market areas, or DMAs, and duopolies in 11 DMAs, including the three largest DMAs (New York, Los Angeles and Chicago). Of these stations, 18 are affiliated with the FOX Network. In addition to distributing sports, entertainment and syndicated content, our television stations collectively produce approximately 1,200 hours of local news every week. These stations leverage viewer, distributor and advertiser demand for the FOX Network’s national content.

The news team at FOX 26 and FOX Local Houston is re‑imagining how local news is gathered and delivered. We no longer wait for appointed times to deliver content. We are a 24/7 streaming‑first news organization. As we continue to evolve, we’re hiring a Morning News Producer who thinks beyond the broadcast, builds for every platform, and understands that great journalism today must stop the scroll as much as it stops the remote. Our morning news block is consistently #1 in Houston and we intend to keep it that way on linear, streaming, and social. This is one of the most competitive news markets in the country. We need someone hungry enough to stay ahead of it everywhere our audience lives.

You’ll plan, produce, and deliver compelling content that works across broadcast, streaming platforms, and social media simultaneously. That means developing segments with a YouTube Shorts and a live control room mindset — sometimes in the same hour. You’ll be the creative engine behind our morning block, moving seamlessly from wall‑to‑wall breaking news and severe weather coverage to engaging studio segments, live guests, and shareable social moments. You’ll co‑own our digital footprint alongside our digital team, ensuring every segment, tease, and interview is cut, captioned, and optimized for the platform it lives on — whether that’s a 90‑second streaming segment, an Instagram Reel, or a full broadcast block. You’ll think about the TikTok clip before the show airs, not after. You’ll also bring genuine creative vision to what morning news can look like in 2026. That means pitching segments that are visually distinct, experimenting with new formats, and pushing the team to produce content that earns loyal followership — not just viewership. You’ll also have opportunities to produce news and sports specials, field produce major events and take on high‑profile special projects.

• A creative thinker who produces for audiences, not just airtime
• Deep fluency on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X — and how content performs differently on each
• Experience producing for or alongside a streaming platform
• Mastery of the control room, with the flexibility to pivot live, fast, and confidently
• Strong, concise writing for multiple formats: broadcast, digital, and social copy
• Editing skills to support live, studio, and social‑first content
• A collaborative spirit — you’ll work closely with anchors, the assignment desk, digital producers, and managers to keep FOX26 ahead of the story and ahead of the competition
