AN OPPORTUNITY AS BIG AS THE WEST TEXAS SKY.

Townsquare Media in Odessa/Midland is looking for a content superstar—a storyteller, a connector, a person who knows how to entertain all of the Permian Basin with personality, purpose, and fun.

This isn't just any opening - we have four great stations with different music and different audiences and we're looking for the best available talent to join one, or more, of them! Our market-leading stations include LoneStar 92-3 (Country), B-93 (Rhythm), MIX 97-9 (Hot AC), and K-Bat (Classic Rock).

Townsquare is a media, entertainment, and digital marketing solutions company dedicated to serving small and mid-sized markets across the U.S. We own and operate 354 radio stations and more than 400 local websites across 74 markets—including trusted Odessa/Midland stations.

We combine the power of local media with best-in-class digital solutions to help businesses grow - offering everything from broadcast and digital advertising to SEO, web design, and programmatic marketing.

• Creating and publishing original video content regularly, including social-first short-form video (Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts) and longer-form segments that grow your personal on-screen brand
• Prospecting and developing endorsement and influencer partnerships with local businesses, pitching yourself as a trusted community voice who can authentically promote products and services across on-air, video, and social platforms
• Participating in person in high-visibility community events, client meetings, and business functions as a station ambassador who builds relationships that translate into revenue

What You’ll Bring:

• A big ol’ personality with a love for local radio and its fans
• Proven, active track record creating original written digital content AND video content across social platforms (show us your pages)
• Strong on-air presence AND on-camera comfort, with the ability to connect authentically with listeners and viewers across every platform
• Knowledge of basic FCC rules and regulations

• Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to prioritize effectively
• Active video creator with a current, maintained presence on at least one short-form video platform (TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts) and demonstrated comfort on camera
• Entrepreneurial, sales-minded instincts: you think about your personal brand as a business, proactively seek out partnership and endorsement opportunities, and are motivated by revenue tied to your influence
• Experience with or strong interest in influencer marketing, brand endorsements, or sponsored content creation, including the ability to pitch yourself compellingly to local advertisers
• High School Diploma (required)

Live Your Best Life in the West Texas Sunshine

Picture this: you wrap up your on-air and digital content, grab a brisket taco, enjoy some time by the pool, then host a live broadcast at one of the many local businesses or music venues in the area.

The Permian Basin has plenty of places to go and activities to do, but it is also close to college football games (like Texas Tech), the Ft. Davis Mountains, and even the 'big city' if you just love traffic!

This is a rare opportunity to take a legendary seat, on a legendary station, in a legendary place, and make it home!

If you've got the heart and a drive to succeed, West Texas is calling.

What's In It for You?

We offer a supportive environment where talent is developed and growth is encouraged:

• Competitive salary + bonus program + endorsement revenue opportunities (your influence = your upside)

• 401(k) Retirement Plan
• Company-provided laptop
