Dynamic, Energetic, Creative, Idea Generation Role! Radio Relations need a High Energy Communicator that can create campaign ideas, communicate concepts, build relationships motivated by fast track career progression.

Radio Relations are the UK’s Leading Radio PR Specialists and have doubled in size year on year.

The Role:

What is Radio PR?
Well firstly it’s NOT radio advertising! Most people are like me in the sense that they don’t like or trust radio adverts. You won’t find too many people that tune in to a radio station because of the advertising. Most people listen to radio because they like the content – this will be a combination of music, the presenters and the news. Have you ever heard a radio presenter talk about a brand on-air in relation to their own experience? Have you ever heard an interview with a doctor or psychologist where they mentioned a brand as a solution to a problem? For most people Radio PR is so subtle that it falls below the radar of most people’s marketing defences – which is exactly the reason why Radio PR is so effective. Radio PR harnesses the relationship between radio presenters and their audience to communicate specific messages to target audiences and generate credible third party endorsement.

The Hours: 8:30am – 5:30pm with a 5pm finish on Fridays!

Start Date: September 2008

The Income and Rewards: The starting salary will be from £20k - £25k depending on experience and you will earn bonuses for every campaign that you create.
