Our portfolio covers a wide range of programming including talent shows, game shows, reality, lifestyle, documentaries and drama. (Notable titles include America's Got Talent and Family Feud in the US, and Grand Designs and Jamie Oliver in the UK.) And with a catalogue stretching back 50+ years, we have an unprecedented library of classic game shows and historic entertainment.
We distribute our content across all channels, from linear broadcast, to global streamers, to social platforms, and on our own collection of 20+ FAST channels.

In this role you will respond to briefs for the creation of on-air and social-oriented promos, trailers, sizzles, spots and other short-form content to promote Fremantle channels and programming on streaming, AVOD and FAST platforms.

You will work across multiple shows and genres to produce standout creative which elevates our programming, emphasizes the quality of our content, and ultimately drives audience awareness, acquisition and retention.
The Preditor is London-based but will work with both UK and US teams to ensure creative deliverables and processes align with briefs from both.
