We're building something big — and we're looking for a brilliant Senior Podcast Producer to help lead the charge.
UnHerd and The Spectator are launching a new slate of bold, agenda-setting podcasts that aim to shake up the UK media landscape. This is a rare opportunity to be in at the ground level of some of the most high-profile podcast launches in recent memory.
We're looking for someone who can do it all: from booking top-tier guests and shaping editorial tone, to overseeing recording, editing, and driving audience growth through smart marketing and promotion. You'll be the engine behind each show — ensuring every episode is sharp, compelling, and flawlessly delivered.
You'll work across both brands, helping to craft shows that are fresh, fearless, and impossible to ignore — with a mix of political insight, cultural edge, and unmissable commentary.
If you're editorially savvy, production-smart, marketing-minded — and hungry to create the next breakout hit — we want to hear from you.
