Yes, this is a break from the norm when it comes to job listings. Boise State Public Radio is a great organization in my opinion, and one worth supporting — and in this case it means doing so by giving their job opening a little more visibility.
Boise State Public Radio has an opening for an Underwriting Representative. From the job listing:
Boise State Public Radio invites interested applicants for the position of Underwriting Representative to become a part of our public radio team. Under the direction of the Corporate Support Manager, the Representative has a highly visible position and will act as one of the station’s ambassadors to the business community including advertising agencies and media buyers. Primary responsibility includes securing financial support for Boise State Public Radio programs, special events, challenge grants and local program production. The Representative will develop and maintain sales accounts, including targeting markets, initiating sales calls, sales appointments, presentations, prospecting, proposals, closing the sales and customer relations.
Full details about the position, including how to apply, can be found in the original job listing.
Balihoo and Balihoo Creative in Boise have two job openings worth mentioning:
Marketing Manager:
This role is responsible for the overall representation of the Balihoo brand within our defined market segments and identifying potential new customers within those segments. Success within the role will be measured primarily by the number of qualified leads driven into our sales team.
Project Manager:
This role is the overall task-master of the group and will be responsible for the scoping, scheduling and managing of all projects from end-to-end. Depending on available time and skill-set, the role may expand into other areas of business that require this skill-set including software implementation with our clients.
Full details about both positions, requirements and how to apply can be found on their respective pages.
And if you do apply, be sure to tell them that you heard about the jobs here.
