The Mid-West Farm Report Network is ready to add some fresh faces and energy to our reporting team! If your passion is talking and sharing stories and content about Wisconsin agriculture – you could be our match! With a busy calendar ahead of us, we’re looking to integrate our new team member or members fairly quickly, so don’t let this opportunity slip by.
This is an on-site position, so you would need to be located with 45 minutes or less of Madison. Travel will be required both in and out of state. Hours vary, but we try to keep a fairly normal clock most times of the year. Benefits including 401K are offered as well.
Here’s a general job description to give you something to think about.
If the idea of a perfect day includes getting out and meeting farmers and ag professionals and reporting on what you learned on our stations and social media, then you’re going to love it here! This opportunity is for someone passionate about all of Wisconsin ag. We want you to help grow our audience, our sales, our state-wide farm network, and on-air reporting content.
An ideal candidate will have hands-on knowledge of agribusiness and can easily relate to the needs and concerns of rural communities and businesses that service agriculture. Like anything related to farming, a strong work ethic is a must—so much so that you didn’t even need to read this last sentence.
Previous on-air and/or promotions experience is considered a big plus but not required. We gotta make hay while the sun shines, so a flexible schedule is required. And because we travel around the state, we offer some limited remote work flexibility. This job position is based in Madison, WI. You must be there a majority of the time.
PERSONAL REQUIREMENTS:
We seek a creative and imaginative person with good communication and organizational skills. A good working knowledge of Microsoft Word and Excel is helpful, but meeting deadlines and handling multiple projects is critical. You must also be well-versed in working with and using social media. A core value at MWF is a positive attitude and the ability to contribute to a productive and successful environment.
Mid-West Family Madison is an equal-opportunity employer. Women and Minorities are encouraged to apply.
SALARY:
Salary commensurate with experience and a full benefits package is available. Plus, a sign-on bonus for a two-year commitment.

Please, no calls. Mail or e-mail resume and air-check to:
