KYUK News Director

KYUK Public Media in Bethel, Alaska is looking for a News Director to lead its nationally award-winning newsroom. KYUK’s mission is to serve the rural Alaska and Alaska Native population of our region and respond to issues that affect the people of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta. Our mission is to educate, stimulate and inform as well as provide cultural enrichment, entertainment, and opportunity for public access and language maintenance for cultural survival. The News Director is the leader, manager, and chief editor of the KYUK newsroom, overseeing news staff, story output, and journalistic standards. Reporters across Alaska have often said that the stories from the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta are the most complicated and compelling in the state. We agree. And KYUK is looking for a News Director who is excited to lead the coverage of this widespread and challenging region.
