Meet JENNIFER HURST, Account Manager & Assignment Editor

Email at: jhurst@ospreyobserver.com

Jennifer Hurst joined the Osprey Observer staff more than six years ago, is the In-House Account Manager and also currently manages editorial assignments, along with every day administrative duties.

Jennifer works with the team of writers to assign stories for each edition as well as managing all in house advertising accounts. She enjoys working with the clients. Jennifer also assists with a lot of the ‘administrative’ activities around the office. She creates the Osprey Observer’s bi-weekly email newsletter and manages all the contests run through and promoted by the newspaper.

Her favorite thing about working for the Osprey Observer is, of course, the people she works with. She also appreciates the paper’s focus on positive news within the community. Jennifer loves the Osprey Observer’s involvement in the local area— especially that it supports and donates to numerous local organizations and charities.

Hurst has two children: Jonathan, 23, an FSU Graduate and Katie, 21, who is a junior FSU student. They have a dog named Samantha (aka Sammie) who “rescued them” in March of 2020.

Although Jennifer grew up in Tampa, she moved locally to FishHawk in 2004. She is a proud Auburn University alum — “War Eagle!”
