About The Position

FOX 7 Austin is seeking a high-energy, quick-thinking Morning Show Producer to steer our fast-paced, one-hour late morning live broadcast! No teleprompter scripts here—this show relies on organic conversation, real-time breaking news, live field reporters, and dynamic guest interviews. We need a master air-traffic controller in the control room who can keep the talent moving, weave together multiple live feeds on the fly, and craft an hour that feels completely fresh, authentic, and unmistakably Austin.

Requirements

2+ years of line producing or live show experience in TV, talk radio, or live digital broadcasting.
Exceptional ear-in-ear communication, control room leadership, and flawless timing skills under high-pressure, unscripted conditions.
A deep pulse on Austin culture, news, and community dynamics to keep topics relevant and engaging.
Technical familiarity with ENPS, live field feeds (LiveU/Dejero), and digital news tools.

Responsibilities

Line produce a daily, fast-paced one-hour unscripted show—seamlessly orchestrating live feeds, field reporters, and guest segments in real time.
Talk in the anchors' and reporters' ears to guide conversations, manage segment timings, hit commercial breaks, and direct talent without relying on a pre-written script.
Source top local trends, pitch hot topics, and book engaging guests (from local newsmakers and artists to Austin cultural icons).
React instantly to breaking news, switching live field feeds and re-ordering segment priorities on the spot.
Work with our digital team to push top unscripted interview moments, live streams, and show highlights directly to FOX7Austin.com and social channels.
