Description
DEPARTMENT OVERVIEW
FRONTLINE is PBS's flagship investigative documentary series, exploring the issues of our time through journalism that speaks truth to power.
We have won every major journalism and broadcasting award, including Emmy Awards and Peabody Awards. Today our dedicated cadre of reporters, producers and digital makers report across platforms — from our documentaries to transmedia projects. In an age of 24/7 breaking news, we remain dedicated to thoughtful, incisive accountability journalism.
As a member of public media, it is a core part of our mission to reflect the diverse perspectives of all the people we serve, while grounding our work in an understanding of how forces, including racism, sexism, and classism, have shaped American life and institutions. We seek both to foster a work environment and to produce journalism that values inclusiveness and reflects the broad perspectives of the American public, from all racial, ethnic, religious, and socioeconomic backgrounds, sexual orientations, gender identities and functional limitations, particularly those from historically underrepresented communities.
JOB OVERVIEW
FRONTLINE is seeking a Social Media Manager to manage daily posting on its social media accounts, someone who will work on keeping FRONTLINE's current social media audiences engaged but be a collaborative innovator on tactics that will attract new audiences. A priority focus for this role will be creating social media assets and audience growth tactics for FRONTLINE's newest initiative, FRONTLINE Short Docs. This role is part of FRONTLINE's audience development team and reports to the Director of Audience Development.
