BEIJING - The end has come for this writer in mainland China, and thus a replacement for my current job is needed. I have worked for nearly the past year as a host with Tianjin Television's Business Traveler program, and it has been an enjoyable time. The program is broadcast each Thursday night on Tianjin TV 1 - the Binhai Channel.
While the job is based in Tianjin, being a travel show it's fine to be based in Beijing or the surrounding area (with the new train, getting to Tianjin is a cinch). That being said, travel to the city is required for some episodes, and for all voiceovers.
Prior to my departure, the channel was already looking for a female host. So there are theoretically two openings for the right candidates (usually they prefer one male, one female). The job is part-time, and hours are flexible. The job requires the following:
- Hosting a weekly TV program, minimum 2 episodes per month
- Being in Tianjin for shooting and voiceover responsibilities
- Editing script
- Able to travel
- Good on-air presence
- Excellent English
- Team player
