This is an exciting opportunity to work across a range of radio bulletins and programmes - you'll contribute engaging programme ideas, research guests and topics, and there will be the opportunity to undertake some on-air work reading news bulletins and reporting., We don't focus simply on what we do - we also care how we do it.

Diversity matters at the BBC. We have a working environment where we value and respect every individual's unique contribution, enabling all of our employees to thrive and achieve their full potential.

We want to attract the broadest range of talented people to be part of the BBC - whether that's to contribute to our programming or our wide range of non-production roles. The more diverse our workforce, the better able we are to respond to and reflect our audiences in all their diversity.

We are committed to equality of opportunity and welcome applications from individuals, regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, socio-economic background, religion and/or belief. We will consider flexible working requests for all roles, unless operational requirements prevent otherwise.

  • A passion for making great radio - that's at the heart of our community

  • An understanding of our radio programmes, TV output and online presence - and an ability to read radio news bulletins

  • A technical understanding of broadcast output and a willingness to learn to operate technical equipment

  • A willingness to work as an active member of a small team across all platforms - keen to meet people

  • An appreciation of the audience we aim to serve
