About the role
WDET 101.9 FM, a community service of Wayne State University, seeks a Manager, News and Current Affairs at its Detroit campus to lead editorial strategy and daily operations of the department.
You will coach reporters and editors, oversee a cross-platform newsroom, collaborate with NPR and partners, and develop coverage that serves the public with accuracy, fairness and impact across broadcast, digital, podcasts and social platforms.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
