• Role: Executive Producer
• Employer: Miss Black USA PAGEANT and scholarship foundation, inc.
• Location: Washington, D.C.
• Employment type: Contract
• Term: January 2026 to August 2026
• Compensation: Commensurate with experience, with a flat fee or monthly retainer
• Travel and lodging: Covered for Pageant Week

The job is built around central coordination. Miss Black USA wants one person who can hold the master production schedule, lead production meetings, and keep the different departments pointed at the same show clock. That work matters most when rehearsals start stacking up and every cue has to land in order.

The pageant side of the job is only part of the load. The executive producer has to work with the Stage Director, TV Producer, Scriptwriter, Talent Coordinator, AV crew, hair and makeup, and graphics staff while the show keeps moving toward the crowning moment.

The role covers call sheets, rehearsals, stage direction, and the final tech rehearsal. It also covers run of show cues, video playback, transitions, lighting framing, script tone, and the small timing decisions that keep a live pageant clean.

• Build and enforce the master production schedule
• Lead production meetings and keep department timing aligned
• Oversee call sheets, rehearsals, and stage direction
• Coordinate with the Stage Director and TV Producer on pacing and cues
• Review script tone, show segments, transitions, and voiceover copy
• Protect the crowning moment, red carpet, award presentations, and ceremonial protocol

Backstage order is a production tool. When the schedule stays tight and the teams know the handoff points, the show reads as polished instead of rushed.

The source asks for 5+ years in live event or televised production, plus experience with cue based timing and work under pressure. It also values pageants, awards shows, or televised competitions, which makes sense because those formats depend on pace, visual discipline, and short turns between major moments.

The ideal background is part technical and part people-facing. Clear communication, script structure, team leadership, copyright and music clearance knowledge, and a calm, solution-focused style all fit the assignment, because the show has to stay clean while multiple departments move at once.

In Washington, D.C. , production work tends to touch nonprofit events, civic programs, embassy functions, gala staging, and live broadcast work. That mix rewards people who can read a schedule fast and keep a room moving without noise.

The city also suits roles that need fast communication across a short chain of command. When the executive producer can manage crew handoffs, rehearsal timing, and show week pressure, the pageant lands with the same order the city demands from its live events.

Miss Black USA carries a long run, a scholarship mission, and a brand that asks for precision at every step. The pageant has been featured by Fox Soul, BET, Good Morning America, and Essence. The job has the same public-facing pressure.

The organization has awarded more than $750,000 in scholarships. That scale changes the job, because the show has to protect the crowning moment, red carpet, award presentations, and ceremonial protocol while still giving the broadcast team and the stage crew room to do their work.

The best applications will read like a production plan. They will show control of call sheets, schedules, rehearsals, and crew handoffs. They will also show comfort with broadcast rhythm, not just event planning. That matters because the job combines pageant performance and live production judgment.

Miss Black USA needs someone who stays steady when the room gets noisy. The right person can keep the pageant orderly from first meeting to final crowning.
