  • Operate the teleprompter during live and taped events
  • Work with on-air talent with different speech patterns
  • Ensure the teleprompter system is in working condition before on-air programming
  • Dress wireless and wired microphones and IFB earpieces
  • Monitor battery levels and troubleshoot in real time.
  • Conduct basic studio maintenance with the team.
  • Read, follow, and execute all relevant tasks outlined in a live news broadcast rundown (ENPS experience a plus).
  • Communicate with Operations Team Leads on issues that will impact the team and broadcasts.
  • Assist engineering team as needed
