Let’s Talk About Des Moines…
• iHeartMedia Des Moines, IA is actively seeking its next Director of Spoken Word to succeed Peter Thiele, who left last week.
[Your name] will be programming the legendary, 13-time Marconi Award-winning News-Talk WHO-AM and the most influential Sports-Talk call letters in Central Iowa — 106.3 KXnO-FM. Both stations have local talent throughout the day and plenty of opportunities to drive ratings and revenue. You will also oversee News-Talk sister 1430 KASI-AM/Ames, IA.

If all those above attributes are on your resume — and you have a proven track record with a minimum of five years (non-negotiable) in the News-Talk or Sports-Talk programming arena, you are advised to hit the following link ASAP and apply. [Req34286-2]
