As an Associate Producer/Vmix Operator, you will edit video content, operate Vmix during live broadcasts, and create engaging clips for social media.
Barstool Sports is looking for a creative, fast, and detail-oriented Associate Producer / Vmix Operator to join the Wake Up Barstool team — a two-hour live morning show airing Monday through Friday based out of our Chicago office.
This role is ideal for those who can edit highlight packages, craft compelling video moments, and bring fresh energy to both the live show and its digital extensions.

- Develop and deliver video elements, graphics, and teasers that enhance the Wake Up Barstool experience.
- Operate Vmix during the live broadcasts and other Barstool live streams when needed.
- Collaborate with producers and hosts to identify key on-air moments and turn them into social-ready clips.
- Support control room operations and assist on other live productions across Barstool Sports when needed.
What You Have
- Proven experience in video editing (Adobe Premiere Pro required; After Effects a plus).
- Strong understanding of storytelling, pacing, and comedic timing in short-form content.
- Experience operating Vmix or other live switcher software.
- Ability to work quickly under pressure and meet tight deadlines.
- Familiarity with social media trends and a keen eye for what performs across platforms.
- Collaborative mindset and a passion for creating dynamic live and digital content.
Bonus Skills
- Motion graphics experience or familiarity with After Effects / Photoshop.
- Knowledge of broadcast control room systems or live streaming workflows.
- Interest in sports, comedy, or pop culture content.
Salary Range: $65,000 - $70,000k
