Position: Producer/Researcher
Posted by: NHK
Type: N/A
Location: Washington, DC
Salary: N/A
Start Date: N/A
Overview:
NHK Japan Broadcasting Corporation currently has an opening for an off-camera producer/researcher position in the Washington DC Bureau to cover either Congress or the State Department.
Responsibilities include daily coverage of Congress or the Secretary of State’s activities, attendance at daily press briefings, coverage of various think tank events around Washington, arranging interviews, and planning and producing feature stories.
Candidates will need to be motivated, interested in political and international affairs and have excellent listening and organizational skills. This is generally not a 9 to 5 job, so the producer should also be prepared to work nights and weekends and travel as needed. Most importantly, we are looking for a team player who will do their very best to assist our Japanese correspondents, and who is capable of bridging the different cultures between America and Japan. Some experience in either broadcast news production or international affairs is required. Japanese language proficiency is a plus but not required.
Interested applicants should send a resume *and* cover letter to info@nhkdc.com no later than June 12. No calls please.
NHK is the public broadcaster of Japan and one of largest networks in Asia with over 100 million viewers worldwide, including in the US via NHK World.
