TVNZ Caption Producer (Part Time), Auckland

Posted Tuesday 09 Aug 2011

The TVNZ Captioning Team produce and edit subtitles for programmes shown on air, which are accessed primarily by deaf and hearing-impaired viewers. TVNZ is looking for a new full-time Caption Producer.

TVNZ's Caption Producers have a love of words, syntax and language. If you often find yourself in the role of 'grammar and spelling police', you will be welcomed into a team of like-minded individuals!

A fast touch-typist with a well-honed attention to detail and sense of accuracy, you will fly through the training provided. A sound general knowledge, interest in current affairs and popular culture and a cool, calm approach to 'live to air' deadlines will help you excel in this role. Editing experience or an Arts degree or similar is preferable for this entry-level position.

If you are a grammar geek looking for a new set of skills, please apply for the role of Caption Producer today. This full-time role involves shift work. Application close 10 August.
