JOB DESCRIPTION

At FOX26 in Houston, we are re-imagining how local news is gathered and delivered. As a STREAMING FIRST news organization, we are looking for a visionary Morning News Executive Producer to lead our evolution in one of the most dynamic markets in the country.

We aren't looking for a traditional newsroom manager. We want an innovative thinker and a "doer" who possesses the drive to make big ideas happen. If you love to challenge conventional television ideas and have a passion for the future of media, you’ll find a home here.

As our Morning EP, you will own the editorial direction and relentless execution of local news from 4:00 AM to 10:00 AM on our linear broadcast channel. However, your impact goes far beyond TV newscasts. You will also:

• Prioritize Digital Platforms: Lead content creation and distribution strategy each morning across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube, ensuring consistent execution by reporters, anchors and digital team members.
• Seamless Integration: Ensure a smooth handoff to our streaming team at 10:00 AM before shifting focus to long-term planning.
• Own the Big Moments: Lead the team in owning breaking news, impactful weather, and big local events like Rodeo Houston and FIFA World Cup 2026.
• Build Connection: Ensure the team and news product remains deeply connected to Houston’s local businesses, non-profits, and community events.

You are a motivator and a connector who thrives on guiding a talented, diverse team toward a common goal. You possess the following skills:

• Exceptional Leadership: You have a demonstrated ability to lead diverse personalities and workgroups, creating an environment where employees feel comfortable to challenge the status quo and experiment.
• Mentorship: You are an outstanding communicator who is committed to coaching and mentoring your team, giving them the space to grow their careers.
• Innovation Champion: You lead newsroom discussions on innovation, including the strategic and ethical use of artificial intelligence.
• Strategic Collaboration: You effectively "manage-up" to the VP of Content Creation & Distribution, ensuring our strategic initiatives are met with urgency and clarity.

We’re focused on candidates with a minimum of 5 years of newsroom management experience, plus an additional 5 years as a producer. As a leader in a major breaking news and severe weather market, you’ll be expected to be on-site and ready to lead during emergencies, including weekends, late nights, or early mornings.

Pursuant to state and local pay disclosure requirements, the pay rate/range for this role, with final offer amount dependent on education, skills, experience, and location is $115,000.00-121,770.00 annually. This role is also eligible for various benefits, including medical/dental/vision, insurance, a 401(k) plan, paid time off, and other benefits in accordance with applicable plan documents.
