About The Position

A UNICORN OF AN OPPORTUNITY HAS ARRIVED. The legendary WOKQ is looking for a morning show content superstar—a storyteller, a connector, a person who knows how to wake up a region with personality, purpose, and sparkle. This isn’t just any opening—it’s on 97.5 WOKQ, New England’s country powerhouse for over five decades. Listeners know us, love us, and start their days with us. So we’re not just hiring a voice—we're hiring a Seacoast staple. ✨ Picture this: you wrap up your on-air and digital content, grab a lobster roll by the ocean, hop on a paddleboard, and then jump on stage to introduce Nashville stars to thousands of fans at NH concert venues. This is where coastal charm meets boots, bonfires, and country soul. Portsmouth and the Seacoast are regularly named one of the best places to live in the U.S., with beaches, mountains, historic towns, breweries, and an award-winning food scene—all just an hour from Boston, Portland, the mountains, and the lakes. This is a rare chance to step into a legendary seat, on a legendary station, in a legendary place. If you’ve got the chops, the charm, and the heart—WOKQ is calling.
