In his new role, Jackson will oversee the station’s content strategy, talent, operations and branding. He will continue serving as Brand Manager of “B93.7” WFBC, “The Block” WFBC-HD2 and “Magic Upstate” WFBC-HD4 in Greenville, SC.
“Dave’s partnership with Dex and Barbie T at B93.7 and his success in the south make him the perfect person for 105.5 Kiss FM,” Audacy Top 40 Format Vice President Molly Cruz said. “We’re looking forward to him bringing his creative energy, future-forward passion for tech and strong leadership experience to the station.”
Jackson said he plans to build on the station’s established position in the Chattanooga market while strengthening its community connection.
“105.5 Kiss FM already has a strong legacy in Chattanooga, and I’m excited to help shape what comes next,” he said. “I’m looking forward to working with our talented local team to build on what’s already connected, while finding new ways to make the station an even bigger part of their daily lives. The focus is simple. Keep Kiss FM relevant and deeply rooted in the community.”
Jackson began his radio career in 1999 as a mixer and producer at “B93.7” in Greenville before moving to Charlotte’s WIBT. He later advanced into programming leadership positions with Cox Radio and Summit Media in Greenville.
He returned to Audacy in 2014 as Brand Manager of “B93.7.” Since then, Jackson has expanded his responsibilities across the company, including serving as Director of Operations.
