WQOW Wake Up Wisconsin Anchor/Producer

WQOW TV 18 is seeking an energetic and experienced TV News Anchor/Producer to join our team for the Wake Up Wisconsin morning show. This is an exciting opportunity to be the face and voice that starts the day for viewers in our community.

The Anchor/Producer will be responsible for anchoring and producing WQOW TV 18's Monday through Friday morning show, Wake Up Wisconsin, which airs from 4:30 a.m. to 7:00 a.m. This role requires a dynamic on-air presence and strong journalistic skills to gather, write, produce, and present accurate and compelling news content.

Key responsibilities include delivering news clearly and in an engaging manner. The Anchor/Producer is also responsible for producing, which includes writing scripts, coordinating graphics, and monitoring show timing. You will also generate story ideas, conduct interviews, and report on stories as needed.

Good news judgment is a must, as is being a self-starter who has the ability to work independently and as part of a team. You must be able to work in an organized fashion under tight deadlines.

This is not an entry level position. Proven experience anchoring or reporting in a professional broadcast environment is required. A strong background in journalism, including familiarity with journalistic ethics and standards, is a must.
