Job Description



TED is looking for a Podcast Producer to play a key role in creating original podcasts for TED. The Podcast Producer has an excellent track record in audio storytelling and will be working on projects for TED podcasts and creative subscriber-only content. This person has demonstrated measurable success in crafting podcasts from beginning to end, works well with teams and creatives, loves problem solving, and has a strong ear for what works well in audio.

Our programs are listened to in over 190 countries and our shows have been consistently ranked by Apple Podcasts as "most downloaded" of the year. In a world with over 700,000 podcasts (and growing), we've maintained this position over the years and have successfully launched new original shows that have found traction with both audiences and partners. TED’s award-winning portfolio of leading audio series include the TED Radio Hour (with NPR), TED Talks Daily, The TED Interview, WorkLife with Adam Grant, Fixable, ReThinking, The TED AI Show and many more. 

The Podcast Producer’s primary responsibility will be creative review and strategic redesign of TED Talks Daily. TED Talks Daily is TED’s largest podcast, with more than 3.2 million unique monthly listeners. The Podcast Producer will work closely with the TED Talks Daily team to develop creative new programming that deepens listeners’ engagement with TED’s content and community.
