ITN Productions is looking for a fully competent and qualified journalist to write, present and produce news bulletins for a longstanding client, Discovery Education Espresso.

The bulletins are aimed at KS1 and KS2 age groups so prior experience of working on education projects for young pupils is preferable.

Video editing experience is key, especially in Avid; you will be comfortable with meeting strict deadlines and liaising regularly with the client.

Past presenting in the studio and on location will also be an advantage and an ability to fully connect with the audience is also what we’re looking for.

You will already have a journalism qualification which will have required a legal pass.

How to apply

Your application must include a show-reel and CV and be sent to ashley.fudge@itn.co.uk

The deadline for this opportunity is Friday 20th February. Please include whether you are fluent in numerous languages.

Bear in mind this position is currently a freelance post. ITN Productions is an equal opportunities employer.
