Sports MMJ / Reporter

WOOD TV is looking for a dynamic and multi-talented Sports MMJ / Reporter to join our sports broadcasting and digital team! This is not an entry-level position. We’re looking for someone with a minimum of three years of professional experience in the field, on digital, and at the anchor desk. We need a polished reporter / fill-in anchor with energetic personality, a creative storyteller, a social media rock star, and – above all – a positive attitude and a drive to win. You’ll be expected to develop relationships with contacts, dig up story ideas, and follow and break the biggest sports stories in West Michigan!

The Sports MMJ / Reporter is responsible for researching, writing, capturing visual content and editing stories for multiple platforms in a manner that is clear, engaging and meaningful to news consumers.

This is not a 9-to-5 job. You will be an MMJ reporter, producer and fill-in anchor, and you will also shoot and edit your own stuff. You will write web stories and craft digital-exclusive content. You will post and go live on social media. You will make public appearances and get to know viewers in the community.
