AAA 106.1 The Corner Needs A DJ Who's A Real Person And Loves Music
We're looking for either a veteran radio DJ who hasn't forgotten how to be a real person on the air, or else an up-and-comer who hasn't yet been made to unlearn that. 106.1 The Corner is all about being in love with music and being real. And you'll be replacing a person who was well liked on the air and in the community. We're part of the Charlottesville (VA) Radio Group, a radio cluster in a college town that punches way above its weight where live music is concerned. The Corner is the station for music lovers in a town full of them.
What We're Looking For:
· An authentic radio presence - curious, funny, compassionate, interesting. The Corner's audience is diverse and passionate, and we need someone who can connect with them.
· A love for the AAA format - you don't have to know everything about every band, but you should know something about a lot of bands.
· Comfort with social media - more than how to post an image to Facebook, we want people who are truly comfortable on social media and know how to reach listeners and bands in creative ways.
· Audio editing skills - you'll be asked to produce promos and ads and more.
· A willingness to listen and to take new ideas on board, while also knowing that your ideas will be heard and valued.
· At least three years of on-air experience at a music station, preferably AAA. You'll also be tracking middays on our classic rock station, so that knowledge is a plus. (That said, if you have less experience than that but you think you can do the job, we're willing to consider you.)
Additional Duties: Depending on your experience, additional responsibilities may include:
· Coordinating and hosting live events and concerts
· Collaborating with local artists and venues to foster community connections
· Assisting in the development and execution of marketing strategies
How to Apply: This is a full-time position with a company that offers top-shelf benefits (insurance, vacation, 401K options). Send us your resume, cover letter, and on-air demo to pmcdaniel@charlottesvilleradiogroup.com. Please put "I Am The Corner" in the subject line.
Saga Communications is an equal opportunity employer. We can't wait to hear from you and see what you could bring to 106.1 The Corner!
