We just graduated another one to the big leagues! Clearchannel Media and Entertainment, Birmingham seeks Full-Time executive Morning show producer. The ideal candidate is someone who is plugged into their community, and understands what people are talking about at church, Target, football games, and around the dinner table with their families. The ability to both navigate and create content on sites like Facebook, and twitter are all a must. This position requires understanding of minds of the consumers of multiple formats: Country, A/C and News-Talk.

Finally maintenance of an ever-growing smart-phone contact list of top shelf local and national celebrities and guests is critical.
The position would require assisting in the booking, planning and execution of three high profile morning shows, general promotional support, board operation and production.
The following are additional desirable traits that we are looking for. No applicant will have every single one of these, but if you don’t have at least most of them, we are probably not a good fit for each other:

•The ability to keep several plates spinning at once.

•Someone who is not afraid to get up very, VERY early in the morning, every weekday morning.
