• Collaborate with producers and hosts to manage show calendars and align guest selections with program themes and audience interests.
• Carefully coordinate with internal departments such as travel coordination, guest services, the friars, show teams, and EWTN Religious Catalogue to ensure smooth communication and preparation.
• Facilitate the handoff to travel and production teams while remaining available to address pre-production questions and time-sensitive scheduling needs.
