Overview
Our Climate Stories That Work programme helps turn up the urgency on climate change without bringing people down. We create big-picture, can-do storytelling instead of guilt and shame.
We work with campaigners, activists, actors, musicians, sports professionals, broadcasters, and others in the public eye or media industry. Our activities include tailored workshops and framing clinics for climate communicators and creative professionals, creative brainstorms and ideation support, script consultations and story development, and more.
We support people and organisations to communicate more effectively on climate change, with an approach grounded in empathy, collaboration, and creativity.
We’re looking for a programme manager to lead Heard’s TV and popular culture work within the Climate programme.
The role
You will lead our TV strand of climate work, collaborating with broadcasters and production companies to help get good climate storytelling into TV and popular culture. You’ll drive key deliverables, from creative decks and story consultations to workshops and partnerships, ensuring our impact lands on-screen and behind the scenes.
This role would suit someone with a background in production or editorial, who’s excited to work across fiction and factual formats.
With the British TV industry turning its attention to crafting compelling shows about climate, there’s huge potential to make a real difference and break new ground in this exciting field.
We don’t expect you to be an expert on climate change, but you must be motivated to translate climate and sustainability into TV shows that audiences genuinely want to watch.
