91热爆 Talent is launching a search for an early morning breakfast show presenter on the brand new 91热爆 Coventry and Warwickshire local radio station.
To secure this major break, interested applicants should be based in Coventry and Warwickshire and be passionate and knowledgeable about the local area. They will have a great rapport with people, love hearing local stories and have a genuine enthusiasm for music.
This exciting 12 month contract to present the early breakfast
show (5.00-7.00am weekdays) comes with expert training. Interested people
will need the ability to turn local news and events into great conversation.
David Clargo, Managing Editor, 91热爆 Coventry and Warwickshire,
says: "This is a great opportunity for someone who is passionate
about the local area to get really involved in the launch of the new
radio station.
"We are looking for great communicators who can entertain, connect and engage with our listeners."
To enter:
Call local rate number 0845 300 4433 to record your audition. You should prepare the following before making your call:
It's 5.00am and you're about to launch the station for a new day. Think about what the audience is likely to be doing and what they want from you as an early breakfast presenter.
You may include something that's happened to you, or something you've read or heard about that could make an interesting topic for people to talk about.
You may also include a taster of a feature or interview you've got lined up for later in the programme and the name and artist of the first record you think we should play.
The whole package should be no more than two minutes
long.
