Project Manager TV Program Design and Format Development (60-70%)

Do you want to help shape the design of a TV program, manage program projects, and drive new format ideas? And do this across the entire spectrum from strategic considerations to the active implementation of projects? Then you are exactly right with us!  

• Your primary area of activity is our two linear TV channels blue Zoom D (German-speaking Switzerland) and blue Zoom F (Romandy). You are part of a small, highly motivated team that continuously works on the optimal programming of these channels
• You support the head of blue Zoom in program design and act as his/her central contact person
• In close cooperation with program planning, you optimize the channel grid and develop proposals for program acquisitions and other innovations
• You take on the initial review of program offers and provide recommendations
• You are responsible for managing these program projects from A to Z: This includes preliminary clarifications, contract negotiations, internal coordination and planning, presence as a producer in the control room or editing suite if necessary, as well as reporting
• You dive deep into the evaluation tools (especially Mediapulse) to check the success of our program and increase viewer numbers
• In the newsroom, you ensure that the content of blue Zoom is optimally distributed on our other platforms
• You are the central interface to internal teams (technology, marketing, online and social media) and to external partners

• Several years of editorial experience in a media company, ideally in the TV sector and in the development of cross-media video formats
• Strong affinity for digital media, TV shows, video formats, and technical infrastructure
• Experience as a project manager and working in a newsroom
• Desire to network in our newsroom to distribute our content as best as possible across all platforms
• Confident German and good French or English skills
• You think strategically and want to lead free TV into the future – but are also ready to "get hands-on" yourself when it comes to planning and executing projects
• You are a team-oriented, proactive, and communicative person who is not easily thrown off course
• You have a good sense of which topics and content interest people
• You also like numbers, and Excel is your friend – because despite all intuition, we want to precisely check which content works for us and which does not
• You work independently, reliably, and solution-oriented – even when things get hectic
