We are looking for a Senior Original Content Producer to join the National Theatre Digital Team.
The Senior Original Content Producer will lead the development and delivery of original digital content formats for online audiences, overseeing projects from concept through to successful execution. Working collaboratively with stakeholders across the organisation and external creative partners, the role will bring together diverse expertise to create high-quality content across multiple strands of activity, ensuring projects are delivered efficiently, creatively and to a consistently high standard.
Thesuccessful candidate will have the following:
- Significant previous experience as a digital producer/creative, with a strong portfolio of Digital Original formats produced for You Tube, Tik Tok or other social-first platforms.
- Demonstrable experience growing and scaling original digital formats/channels - track record of audience growth, engagement or subscriber/revenue metrics tied to their work.
- Strong data literacy: comfortable interpreting platform analytics (You Tube Studio, Tik Tok analytics, etc.) and using that data to make creative and editorial decisions.
- Experience managing talent and/or Creators, including maintaining productive working relationships with external contributors.
- Proven ability to work in a test-and-learn, iterative production environment - comfortable with rapid production cycles, ongoing format refinement, and learning from underperforming content rather than treating it as failure.
- A digital-native producer mindset - deeply understands social/You Tube content conventions, pacing, and audience behaviour, as distinct from a broadcast/TV production background.
If that sounds like you, this may be the role for you!
