From brilliant creatives, to technology trailblazers, across the globe, WBD offers career defining opportunities, thoughtfully curated benefits, and the tools to explore and grow into your best selves. Here you are supported, here you are celebrated, here you can thrive.

We are the now and the next. The power behind the people building the future. We are born from the spirit of innovation. We are created from the idea that people around the world want more, need more, deserve more. We are the home of the global digital revolution. We are CNN.

Your New Role…

Working predominately across CNN’s new Global Perspectives franchise, the Event Executive is to work closely with the Events Team on the production of this high-impact event series that explores global narratives.  This role requires exceptional production skills and a passion for delivering high spec events.

Your Role Accountabilities…

For more details, including leadership appointments and information on individual brands, please visit our newsroom here.

Although you will be hired by Warner Bros. Discovery, upon the planned separation in 2026, your employment likely will transition to Discovery Global.
