JOB DESCRIPTION

If you're a high energy morning on air talent, who likes wearing different hats, have we got the job for you!

FOX 9 KMSP in Minneapolis/St. Paul is searching for a self-starter and multi-tasker to be the newest member of our AM team. You'll start your days producing and delivering traffic reports for our top rated FOX 9 Morning News. After that, you'll be part of a team that is creating live, engaging streaming coverage that isn't just reading the news. Instead, you'll be finding and producing up interviews and other engaging content, then putting on your ''on camera'' hat to deliver that content.

Traffic Responsibilities include:
• Monitoring MnDot for traffic information
• Must be able to operate WSI traffic applications
• Must be able to handle breaking traffic incidents.
• Must be comfortable with presenting traffic information utilizing key wall
• Knowledge of local interstate system and highways
• Must become knowledgeable on current and future construction projects

Digital Desk Responsibilities include:
• Brainstorming and executing interesting, engaging newsmaker guests
• Having a keen sense of the news cycle, for yesterday, today and what's coming up
• Be fast on your feet…an excellent ''ad-libber''. Our streaming content is off the cuff and conversational. We don't script much and a lot can happen fast!

Again, you must be conversational and comfortable on air. Rarely if ever will you work off a prompter. On camera presentation must be warm and engaging, and you must have at least 3 years of on-air experience.

At FOX, we foster a culture and environment where everyone feels welcome and can thrive. We are deeply committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion, including attracting, retaining, and promoting diverse talent across our company. We live in a diverse world, with different ideas and different perspectives that come together to spark new ideas and make great things happen.
