About the Role:
One of North America's strongest radio signals needs your voice! Are you ready to Play All Day? Energy 95.3 has a rare opportunity for a dynamic personality to take the helm of our afternoon show. This is your chance to entertain and connect with listeners—not just in Hamilton but across the GTHA. If you had to Google that acronym, this might not be the role for you.
We’re looking for someone who thrives on creating engaging, interactive, and relevant content across on-air, social, and digital platforms.

You Will Contribute By:
- Hosting an entertaining and engaging afternoon drive show.
- Connecting with Hot AC artists through interviews (in-person and virtual).
- Collaborating with the team to create memorable radio moments.
- Leveraging social media to drive audience engagement and ratings.
- Representing Energy 95.3 at promotional events and community activations.
- Bring creative, revenue-friendly ideas that enhance programming and sales.
Experience and skills you bring:
- A passion for the Hot AC format and an authentic connection to the audience.
- Post-secondary education in Journalism, Broadcasting, Radio/TV Arts, or equivalent experience (preferred).
- On-air announcing experience (preferred).
- Strong engagement skills across on-air, text, and social media platforms.
