Each week EXECUTIVE LEADERS RADIO produces four half-hour shows on WWDB-Philadelphia (Friday 10a-12noon), and is now moving into other national markets. We profile our region’s key executives representing many industries and functions. The focus of each show is to educate and inform our listening audience regarding the leadership and management issues facing today’s business leaders.
As Host you will conduct an on-air interview which is truly an informal conversation. And throughout this conversation you’ll talk about management style and philosophy, lessons learned, industry trends, challenges and opportunities ahead. This provides each guest an opportunity to showcase their career and their enterprise (i.e. how to sustain excellent through time, how to keep the fire burning after achieving success, etc.). As a member of the Production Team, this position also has a role in assisting in the securing of the guest roster for the show. Willingness and professionalism to speak with senior executives is mandatory; background in either sales, recruiting or marketing is preferred as you will be working with meeting the needs of the show's sponsors. The position is permanent, part time - 3 to 4 hours a week.

Good interviewing skills
Must be able to demonstrate a broad knowledge of business
Prior phone experience
Strong organizational skills
Interested in permanent, part time; it is KEY that you are not looking for a full time position but understand and accept the limited hours
The studio is located in Manayunk and the host will need to go to the studio for the on-air interview on Friday mornings. We are looking for someone who is not dazzled by the concept of being 'on the air' or caught up in the label of being an 'on-air personality', rather we are looking for someone who understands business, has strong interviewing skills and who works well with a team. Good candidates would be people who enjoy interviewing, talking in depth, and can establish a quick rapport with others and draw out a conversation. Additional duties as Associate Producer could be something that can be added on to this position, if comfortable. Associate Producer duties require you to identify, locate and contact potential guests for the show and other related organizational duties.
Please respond to
[email protected] as soon as possible. We hope to begin phone interviewing immediately.
