radio jockey

On-air personality

A radio jockey is a person who hosts a radio program, selecting and introducing music, providing commentary, and engaging with listeners.

The term parallels disc jockey but emphasizes the broadcast medium.

Often shortened to RJ, particularly in South Asian English: She works as an RJ at the local FM station.
