We are looking for our next newsroom leader!
Ready to escape the big city for a lower cost of living? Ready to escape the traffic and noise for the great outdoors and fresh air? Did I mention we're a family-owned company? We've got a News Director opening! NonStop Local Tri-Cities/Yakima is Eastern Washington’s leader in local news, weather and sports coverage on television and digital platforms! Affiliated with the NBC network, KNDU/KNDO are proud members of KHQ Incorporated and Cowles Montana Media. About this opportunity: Are you ready to take the next leap in leadership? Do you want to spread your wings and build community? Is journalism in your blood? Here’s your chance to lead a dominant locally-focused newsroom in a family-owned media company. It’s a place filled with sunshine, talent, and cutting-edge modern journalism. It’s more than NBC. It’s more than just a TV station. It’s NonStop Local, and it’s a place you’ll be proud to call home. The KNDU/KNDO News Director will lead our top-rated award-winning newsroom. Responsibilities include development and supervision of news department staff, providing direction in story selection, storytelling, and coverage. You’ll coach, critique, and motivate. And you’ll win. If you’ve read this far, you’re probably already considering newsroom leadership. And you’re probably selective about where you want to take your talent. So why here? For starters, this is a beautiful part of the Pacific Northwest, bathed in sunshine and recognized again and again for its incredible quality of life. Rivers, mountains, vineyards, breweries, and farmers markets – it’s all here. And then there’s our company. We believe in partnership. We believe in unshackling your creative instincts, investing in your success as a leader, and supporting your work/life balance. If you’ve worked for the big guys, you already know what you’re missing. Good thing you’ve found this post!
