Digital Producer

Paramount is hiring a Digital Producer for CBS Atlanta, based in Atlanta, GA. This role sits within the CBS Stations digital news operation, where the producer owns content creation across CBSNews.com, the CBS Atlanta app, YouTube, and emerging digital platforms. It is a strong fit for a working journalist who understands breaking news workflow and has real experience shaping editorial strategy through analytics.

About the Role

The Digital Producer works directly inside the CBS Atlanta newsroom, translating broadcast journalism into platform-native digital content for one of Paramount’s owned-and-operated station groups. Day to day, that means writing and publishing articles, clipping video from news coverage, running live blogs during breaking stories, and producing longform YouTube content around planned tentpoles and key news events. The schedule is Wednesday through Sunday, 2:30pm to 11pm, with a one-hour break.

Key Responsibilities

• React to breaking news in real time, writing, editing, and publishing articles while managing live blogs across digital news platforms.
• Use analytics tools including Google Analytics, Omniture, Chartbeat, and Parse.ly to inform editorial priorities and content framing decisions.
• Clip and distribute high-interest video segments to support the station’s YouTube channel and episodic digital news output.
• Live stream breaking news events and produce topical longform video content through the CBS Atlanta YouTube workflow.
• Write newsletters and send push alerts timed to news cycles and audience behavior patterns.
• Support digital operations for CBS owned-and-operated stations across the South region, coordinating content strategy beyond the Atlanta market.

What You Bring

• Three or more years of experience working in a digital breaking news environment with a demonstrable track record of publishing under deadline pressure.
• Strong self-editing skills and a clear understanding of how content framing shifts across platforms, from app push alerts to YouTube long-form.
• Hands-on experience with analytics platforms including Google Analytics, Chartbeat, and Parse.ly, used to make real editorial calls, not just read dashboards.
• Comfort operating across a live newsroom production workflow where broadcast and digital teams share resources and coverage responsibilities.
• Genuine interest in where digital journalism is headed, including emerging platforms and new content formats.

Why This Role

Paramount’s CBS Stations group is one of the largest owned-and-operated broadcast networks in the country, and this role puts a Digital Producer at the center of building out what regional digital news coverage actually looks like going forward. Working across a multi-station region means real scope and visibility, not just maintaining a single market feed. The company’s commitment to its digital infrastructure makes this a role where the work has direct impact on editorial direction.
