Responsibilities:
- Filming, editing and producing player/coach interviews, press conferences and CLNS reports at each Celtics home game (including the pre-season and possible postseason).
- Filming, editing and producing The Garden Report: Celtics Post Game Show after each game in the Garden.
- Working each Celtics home game for the entire season.
- Writing summaries to accompany videos on YouTube and video posts to CLNS Radio and partner sites Celtics Blog and SB Nation.

- Extensive knowledge of the Celtics and the NBA.
- Ability to write short summaries and headlines in a timely manner.
- Capability to work in a high-paced and high-pressure environment. There are very small timeframes to produce content throughout the pre- and post-game segments, which require an intense attention to detail and the ability to juggle multiple tasks.
