An edit producer reports directly to the series producer. On a day-to-day basis they work with an editor, and will occasionally be joined by an executive producer and a channel commissioner who watch the show and give feedback.

The role of an edit producer can be quite different depending on whether they are working on a documentary or live programme.

On a documentary, edit producers take all the shot footage, known as ‘rushes’, and put the best bits together to create a polished, complete programme. They work with an editor who has technical as well as story-telling skills. 

On a live entertainment programme created in a studio or an event at an outside broadcast, edit producers are responsible for the pre-prepared films, known as VTs, that are inserted into the programme. The VTs are created by VT editors in a number of edit suites. The edit producer oversees these and may also be responsible for overseeing the editing of highlights packages that are produced while the programme is on air.

Very experienced edit producers may oversee an entire series, creating an overall style and carrying a narrative over several episodes, guiding a team of edit producers who cut individual episodes. They are known as series edit producers.
