Bauer Media Audio UK’s national radio brand JAZZ FM is looking for a skilled and creative producer to join the production team fulltime.

Jazz FM is one of the globe’s biggest, oldest and most respected jazz music broadcasters that plays the world’s greatest jazz, soul and blues from the world’s greatest artists. This ranges from the mainstream sound of household names like Gregory Porter, Ella Fitzgerald and Nina Simone, but also specialist programming ranging from new music, avant guard, world music, big band and much more, with a breadth of programmes from revered broadcasters such as Clare Teal, Helen Mayhew, Jez Nelson, YolanDa Brown and Robbie Vincent.

Working alongside our sister production team at our classical music brand Scala Radio (which together deliver almost 800,000 listeners per week), we have a small but passionate team of music programmes and producers where there is much camaraderie and passion for what we do. We value authenticity in ourselves and our people and we have created an atmosphere where everyone is welcome to participate and bring ideas.

Because this is a role within Jazz FM, the successful applicant will have at least a working knowledge of jazz and its related genres alongside a passion and experience for audio content production. You’ll be capable of operating technical systems required for correct playout of the stations automated programming and production system along with pre-recording sessions. You’ll also be able to re-purpose shows for repeat broadcast and ensure correct playout of the programmes, features and commercial breaks.

The role will involve you managing high profile guests & presenters to the radio station so you will have to be able to build positive working relationships with individuals in the on-air and off-air team and ensure presenters comply with the media law and OFCOM regulations.

Because of this, you need to have some experience of professional audio production at producer level, maybe in local radio or other disciplines like podcasting, and be looking for the next challenge with a wish to produce content at a national level.

You will be expected to maintain high editorial and production values and be proactive with creative suggestions for content, shows, talent and event-radio moments.

PLEASE NOTE: If classical music is more your thing, we are also looking for an experienced Producer to join Scala Radio which will go live on Monday (24th July).
