Stephens Media Group says Nik Rivers will return to Buffalo to serve as the operations manager for its three stations there, starting in December.
Rivers previously worked in Rochester as the program director for WZNE (94.1 FM, The Zone), Stephens’ alternative rock station. He returns to the market after an eight-year stint in Buffalo.
“I am beyond excited to make the move back to Rochester and rejoin the amazing team at Stephens Media Group,” Rivers said in a statement.
Rivers said he looked forward to working with staffers at WRMM (101.3 FM), WZNE and WFKL (93.3 FM).
“The stations, and the cluster as a whole, are market leaders, and I am looking forward to continuing the great run of success they have had in Western New York while bringing a new attitude and passion to the group to help lead it into the future,” Rivers said.
