Researcher, Springwatch

A full-time programming job at BBC (Studios - NHU) in Bristol, United Kingdom
Posted 10 January 2018, 7.56pm gmt





As part of the Watches brand, Springwatch has come to represent the home of UK wildlife output on BBC 2, with a reputation for topicality, story telling and rigorous scientific reporting, and we are looking for an experienced and highly motivated researcher to join the Springwatch team.

This is a chance to help shape the wildlife editorial on this highly successful live natural history series, delivering a live television event complete with web content and audience contributions.

The successful applicant will need to demonstrate strong editorial skills; coming up with and developing new ideas, setting up and going on shoots, working closely with talent and contributors collecting and collating new scientific research by building links with well-established academic projects.

Knowledge of UK wildlife is essential, but more importantly we are looking for candidates who want to share that passion; who want to engage our existing audience in new and challenging ways, while also reaching out and bringing new audiences to the ‘Watches’ brand and a love of British wildlife.

Start date is March through to end June 2018.

This job closed on 29 January, 2018 so we’re afraid you can no longer apply for this role.
