WPSD Local 6, the NBC affiliate in the 84th market, needs a newsroom leader. You must be a creative thinker, a great writer, a tireless champion for quality, a problem solver, extraordinarily curious, a person of empathy, intelligence and, most of all, embrace a long tradition of journalism as both watchdog and community servant.
You are right for this job if you have a passion for meaningful storytelling, breaking news coverage, comprehensive digital coverage, social media, teaching, coaching and training. You are a roll up the sleeves journalist. You are collegial with a strong work ethic. Finally, your colleagues will testify that you are a perfect match for this job post.
This is an award-winning news organization covering parts of four states. Our teammates frequently take the next step to bigger markets. This opening is available because the incumbent is moving to a Top Twenty. We are convenient to Nashville and Saint Louis. Outdoor life is wonderful here with boating, hiking, fishing, hunting and camping. We also boast a symphony, fine dining, art house cinema, Community Theater, a thriving arts community and the ambience of a historic river city. We prefer news management experience but this could be your first management job on your way to being a News Director or more.
Please email a resume, links to your best work and a cover letter explaining in detail what you have to offer. Email to Perry Boxx, News Director, WPSD Local 6, Paducah, Kentucky. pboxx@wpsdlocal6.com
