THE SHOW:

The Journal is a daily narrative news podcast made in partnership between Gimlet and the Wall Street Journal. Each day, we tell one important news story in 15-20 minutes. Our show focuses on money and business, applying those lenses to general news or zooming in on business stories that other outlets do not tell. We cover everything from the war in Ukraine to the momentum around unionization to the business problems facing Oatly, a leading maker of oat milk. We've recently done deep dives on the metaverse, and a series on a former Russian hacker.

The ROLE

The Journal is hiring an intern to join the team for the Winter/Spring of 2022 (January 10, 2023 - July 7th, 2023). This is a paid, full time role for anyone based anywhere in the United States, working East coast hours.

Our ideal candidate is a fan of the show, an enthusiastic consumer of news, curious about business, and excited about narrative storytelling. We are looking for someone who's eager to learn the ins and outs of making a daily news show -- whether that means supporting hosts or producers in their roles, listening and responding to honest and open feedback, or contributing ideas of their own. Experience with podcasting or audio editing is a big plus.

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

• Pitch story ideas
• Find scoring and archival tape for episodes
• Cut audio for daily productions needs (there will be training on this)
• Find and book guests
• Support producers in daily and long-term production needs
• Attend interviews and edits of episodes in the works
• Help make the best show possible
