  • Background in broadcast operations, promo scheduling, or traffic coordination preferred.
  • Proficiency in Wide Orbit, Microsoft Office Suite, and Excel is a plus.
  • Calm and adaptable under pressure, particularly during breaking news or rapid changes.
  • A curious, growth‑minded professional who seeks to understand the “why” behind strategic decisions and strives for operational excellence.
  • Salary Range: $50,000 - $60,000 Annually

This position is pivotal in maintaining the accuracy, relevance, and impact of our on‑air messaging.
