•    Create digital elements including producing mobile shorts daily
•    Shooting and editing as needed

Requirements:
•    Minimum 3 years of sports producing experience
•    Strong editorial judgment and deep knowledge of sports
•    Experience creating and managing high-volume show graphics
•    Proven ability to book guests and develop strong industry contacts
•    Ability to work under daily deadline pressure in a collaborative newsroom environment
•    Excellent communication and organizational skills
•    Shooting and editing skills


Pay Range

Regardless of participation in TEGNA medical plans, ALL employees and their eligible family members receive nine free virtual doctor’s appointments with a physician through Teladoc, and 12 free annual therapy sessions with a licensed clinician through Spring Health.
