We are a growing group of brands with ambitious plans to create engaging content, build communities, and become recognised voices within our industries. As part of our growth strategy, we are launching a podcast that aims to deliver insightful, entertaining, and thought provoking conversations with inspiring guests from around the world.
We are looking for a highly motivated Podcast Producer & Guest Relations Executive to help build the podcast from the ground up.
This is not a traditional production role. We are looking for someone who can identify great guests, uncover compelling stories, conduct in-depth research, develop episode concepts, and help create conversations that people genuinely want to listen to.
You will be responsible for researching and securing guests, developing episode ideas, preparing interview briefs, and ensuring each episode is aligned with the podcast's vision and audience and the greater vision of the group. You will work closely with the host and wider team to shape the direction of the show and help build a podcast that stands out in an increasingly competitive market.
This is a fast-paced role that requires a high degree of independence, resilience, and initiative. You will hear 'no' far more often than 'yes', so persistence, determination, and the ability to keep moving forward are essential. You are confident in overcoming obstacles and maintaining momentum to achieve results. Strong PR and relationship-building skills are essential, along with the ability to communicate professionally and represent the brand effectively.
Identify, research, and approach potential podcast guests and book guests.
Build and maintain relationships with guests, agents, publicists, and industry contacts.
Evaluate whether potential guests align with the podcast's objectives, audience, and values.
Conduct thorough due diligence and background research on guests.
Manage outreach campaigns and booking processes.
Coordinate schedules and guest communications.
Develop episode concepts and content ideas.
Research industry trends, current affairs, and relevant topics.
Prepare detailed briefing documents for each guest.
Create interview structures and conversation frameworks.
Identify unique angles and discussion points for every episode.
Write episode outlines, scripts, introductions, and briefing notes.
Develop thoughtful and engaging interview questions.
Help shape compelling conversations that deliver value to listeners.
Assist with promotional content and episode summaries.
Monitor podcast trends and competitor content.
Recommend opportunities to improve audience engagement and growth.
Suggest new content formats, guest categories, and partnership opportunities.
Ensure all content supports the wider brand strategy.
Conduct background checks and research to ensure guests align with the podcast's values.
Identify potential reputational risks before guests are confirmed.
Maintain high editorial standards across all content.
The ideal candidate will be:
Naturally curious and passionate about learning.
An excellent researcher with strong attention to detail.
A confident communicator and a natural persuader..
Highly organised and able to manage multiple projects.
Skilled at storytelling and developing engaging content.
Comfortable working in a fast-paced entrepreneurial environment.
Interested in business, entrepreneurship, culture, media, and current affairs.
Proactive and capable of taking ownership of projects.
One of the most important aspects of this role is guest outreach.
Not every guest will respond. Not every guest will say yes.
We are looking for someone who understands that rejection, unanswered emails, and declined invitations are part of the process and who has the determination to keep going.
The successful candidate will:
Be comfortable hearing "no" and continue pushing forward.
Remain motivated when outreach efforts do not immediately produce results.
Be persistent, professional, and creative in their approach.
Continuously find new ways to connect with potential guests.
Take pride in securing opportunities that others may have given up on.
Experience in podcast production, journalism, media, PR, communications, research, content creation, or a related field.
Strong writing and communication skills.
Experience conducting research and preparing briefing materials.
Familiarity with podcasts and long-form content.
We understand that exceptional talent is not always reflected by job titles or years of experience.
If you are ambitious, resourceful, highly organised, and believe you can help build a world-class podcast, we encourage you to apply even if your background is unconventional.
Opportunity to help build a podcast from the ground up.
Work directly with founders and senior leadership.
Significant responsibility and room for growth.
Be part of an ambitious and fast-growing business.
Opportunity to shape content that reaches audiences globally.
To apply, please send your CV along with a short statement explaining:
