Job Description:

What sets POLITICO apart is our unwavering commitment to nonpartisan, fact-driven journalism and our exceptional depth, with nearly 600 journalists - across seven newsrooms and with expertise in more than 40 policy beats - dedicated to decoding political dynamics and policy implications. We've established ourselves as essential in today's complex political landscape by providing unmatched reporting and analysis with a global lens.

POLITICO live events and the audio-video team represent the physical manifestation of our mission - convening the most influential stakeholders for urgent, news-driven conversations that add depth and context to the discussions that genuinely matter. POLITICO is seeking a highly capable and dynamic booker to join our growing team, based in Arlington, VA. This producer will support the programming and production of our live events and podcasts by identifying, researching, and securing top-tier guests - from policymakers and thought leaders to subject-matter experts and news makers.

This position will directly contribute to high-profile, newsworthy events, programs, and experiences that advance POLITICO’s newsroom and editorial franchises as well as creating impactful brand moments for POLITICO and its clients. The ideal candidate is a self-starter with strong communication skills, excellent judgment, someone who excels in a fast-paced and collaborative environment and who has a keen sense for news and topical relevance.
