WQED is the nation’s first community-supported television station and a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit that produces and distributes public media for the Pittsburgh region and beyond. WQED Multimedia operates broadcast television (WQED-TV), classical radio (WQED-FM 89. 3), digital streaming through the WQED+ app, and podcasts; it creates and curates local storytelling, national PBS programming, educational resources and community and school programs. The organization focuses on education, arts and culture, and community engagement while sustaining operations through membership, donations, corporate support, events and merchandising.

📋 Description

• Write and produce WQED’s weekly email newsletter, including subject lines, preheaders, headlines, blurbs, calls to action, and basic formatting. • Curate highlights from PBS, WQED local programming, Classical WQED, WQED+, PBS KIDS, events, education initiatives, and community resources. • Translate program descriptions, schedules, streaming availability, and internal notes into clear, audience-friendly copy. • Help viewers and listeners understand what is new, what is timely, what is local, and what is worth their attention. • Collaborate with Marketing, Programming, Digital, Development, Education, and Classical WQED colleagues to gather accurate information and identify priorities. • Maintain a consistent WQED voice: warm, neighborly, useful, Pittsburgh-focused, and grounded in public service. • Assemble and proof occasional special-purpose emails and announcements tied to major programs, station events, fundraising campaigns, or community initiatives. • Review newsletter performance, including open rates, click-throughs, and audience behavior, and use those insights to improve future editions. • Proofread carefully for accuracy, grammar, links, dates, times, channel information, streaming language, and tone. • Help develop repeatable newsletter formats, editorial calendars, and workflows that make the newsletter easier to produce and more valuable to readers.

• Excellent writing, editing, and proofreading skills. • Strong editorial judgment and the ability to make choices about what is most useful or interesting to the audience. • Experience writing newsletters, digital content, program descriptions, arts/culture coverage, marketing copy, journalism, or public media communications. • Ability to write short, compelling copy that helps people decide what to watch, stream, hear, attend, or share. • Comfort working with schedules, program information, links, images, and digital publishing tools. • Experience reviewing basic newsletter analytics and using performance data to improve content. • Strong attention to detail, especially with dates, times, titles, names, and calls to action. • Ability to work independently while collaborating with colleagues across departments. • Interest in PBS, public media, local storytelling, arts and culture, classical music, education, and community service. • Familiarity with Pittsburgh and southwestern Pennsylvania is preferred.
