Development Officer – WERS needs a seasoned professional to run development. Perhaps you’re a #2 or #3 at a large station and it’s time to take over your own shop. Or maybe you’re the #1 in a small market and it’s time to move up to the top 10. The previous head of development moved on in the non-profit world, but she left the department in excellent shape. You won’t have to re-build — just do what you can to take it to the next level.
In Brief: “The WERS Development Officer manages all aspects of efforts that yield listener support, including the planning and execution of on-air drives, renewal letter campaigns and telemarketing
