About the role

As Canada’s second-largest commercial radio broadcaster, Vista Radio Ltd operates over 70 radio stations and digital news portals across three provinces and the Northwest Territories! Each of our stations is deeply rooted in the communities we serve while retaining local voices, building strong connections, and delivering stories that matter. Paired with dynamic digital portals, our stations provide 24/7 access to timely, trusted, and hyper-local content, keeping our audiences informed, engaged, and connected.

On-Air Announcer – Williams Lake, BC

Your next big break is here! We’re looking for our next On-Air Announcer who has amazing skills as content creator to join the Vista Radio team in Williams Lake, BC, supporting The Goat and Cariboo Country.

This is a role for someone who loves being on the mic, on camera, online, and out in the community — someone ready to grow an audience, build a personal brand, and create content that truly connects.

We’re creative, community-driven, and always evolving, and we need a teammate who’s excited to be more than just “on-air.” If you want to be part of a team where your voice, personality, and ideas actually matter, we’re ready to talk to you!

Williams Lake, known as the Hub City of the Cariboo, is a year-round playground for outdoor enthusiasts and a place where local personalities still matter. This is a market where you can make a real impact, become well-known in the community, and gain hands-on media experience you won’t get in bigger centres.

If you’re ambitious, creative, and ready to grow, this is the opportunity for you.

About the Job: Vista Radio has an immediate opening for a full-time On-Air Announcer, based in Williams Lake, BC, supporting The Goat and Cariboo Country.
