Vice President/General Manager - WDIV-TV (Detroit)

We're not your parents' television station. At WDIV Local 4/ClickOnDetroit we're reimagining what local broadcasting means in an era of streaming, social media, and fractured audience attention. We're seeking a visionary leader who sees these challenges as opportunities and is ready to write the next chapter of television's evolution.

As VP & General Manager, you'll be a forward-thinking media leader who challenges industry norms and embraces change, bringing deep experience without being bound by legacy thinking. You will excel at developing talent and building adaptable, change-ready, high-performing teams, while staying relentlessly focused on meeting audiences where they are. Driven by a competitive spirit, you thrive on innovation and the excitement of market success. This isn't about maintaining the status quo—it's about charting a bold new course.
