Nexstar Inc., America’s largest local broadcasting company, is seeking an experienced and dynamic vice president-general manager to oversee its media properties in Rockford, Ill., (DMA 139.) following the upcoming retirement of the current VP-GM, Kelly Lattimer, on July 1.

In this role, the VP-GM will have full oversight over Nexstar’s operations at WQRF (Fox) and oversee its operational agreements with Mission Broadcasting providing services to WTVO (ABC-MNT) through a JSA and SSA, as well as the station’s digital, mobile and social media assets. Nexstar serves the Rockford television market with more local news and special programming than any other station.

Striving to be a Top 25 community, the Rockford region is competitive with the best in the U.S. and throughout the world. The Rock River flows through a dynamic riverfront downtown featuring restaurants, unique shops, the BMO Harris Bank Center home to the Rockford Ice Hogs, affiliated with the Chicago Blackhawks.

The advantages include big-city lifestyle but with a small town feel. There are world-class attractions and activities throughout the year that can be accessed without the congestion and hassle associated with major metropolitan areas. The Rockford Park District maintains award-winning parks and recreational opportunities throughout Winnebago County. The region is one of the nation’s leading hubs for amateur sports tourism.

The Rockford Region’s cost of living is approximately 18% lower than the national average. This leaves you with more time and more money. Rockford Public Schools District 205 has been named the Third Ford Next Generation Model Community in the nation.

 

NBCU’s WCAU, the NBC O&O in Philadelphia, and WWSI (Telemundo62), are looking for a “hands-on” multi-faceted senior IT systems engineer.

This role requires that you possess the necessary self-discipline to take ownership and responsibility for supporting our critical infrastructure and delivering technical solutions considering all customers’ business and technical needs. You will be part of a talented hands-on team that demonstrates superb technical competency, providing internal customer-oriented solutions, mission-critical infrastructure, and ensuring the highest levels of availability and performance.

I grew up in the Philadelphia area so I can speak volumes about why you should live here.

Philadelphia is two hours from New York, Baltimore, the Chesapeake Bay and Washington, D.C.

It’s two hours to the shore, what we call the beaches in Jersey. And you’re two hours to fishing, skiing, and hiking in the Pocono Mountains.

There are cheesesteak and hoagies stores on nearly every corner. It’s a cottage industry around here. And of course, there’s WaWa, ask a local about that.

Colleges? Please. Penn, Drexel, Temple, St. Joe’s, Villanova, they’re everywhere.

Sports team? The Eagles, the Phillies, the 76ers, the Flyers, and the Union.

Restaurants abound in the city and in the suburbs.

History? If you have to ask, maybe this isn’t for you.

Art, theater, music and culture?  Let me put it this way, you don’t have enough time to sample it all.

Outdoor? Parks, trails, woodlands, lakes, rivers, whether you’re in the city proper or in the suburbs, you can take your pick.

Look, you’ll be working at NBC-owned stations, and once you get here, you’ll never want to live anywhere else. Got questions about living here? Call me. I know what I’m talking about.
