Jonathan Steele will take over the day-to-day operation of the Peoria/Bloomington market’s leading Top 40 radio station, working on developing talent and growing the brand on air and online. Steele most recently worked as Program Director for the Martz Communications Group in upstate New York. There, he led three stations that were players in both the U.S. and Canada. Previously, Steele worked on air at the former WNGY-FM in Peoria. He starts his new job July 24.
Scott Hecathorn, Operations Manager for the cluster, is excited by the addition. “Jonathan is a key hire in our quest to connect on an even deeper level with Peoria radio listeners. His enthusiasm and passion for the traditional medium, and ability to tell a story through not only his words on air, but also pictures and videos on social media, will help lead us to even greater success.”
