VPR seeks a creative and enterprising journalist to become one of the leading voices in Vermont’s media landscape.
As our afternoon host, you’ll be front and center to the day’s developing news. You’ll provide updates and context to daily news and deliver it to listeners through newscasts, interviews, reported stories and digital and social posts. You’ll also guide our audience through breaking news and special coverage. As part of our news team, you’ll work with editors and reporters as well as our talk show, Vermont Edition, our daily news podcast, The Frequency and our people-powered podcast, Brave Little State.
VPR and Vermont PBS have come together to form a new organization and we’re seeking someone who is excited by new opportunities and can think beyond radio broadcasts. We’re looking for someone who steps forward when news happens, moves toward the story and finds ways to connect coverage with a broad and diverse audience.
