About the Role
The Financial Times (FT) is a globally recognised news organisation known for its authority, integrity and accuracy.

The Assistant Producer will support the delivery of branded content campaigns across FT Studio, taking ownership of smaller, single-format deliverables such as social assets, simple video edits, editorial pieces and multimedia components.
