UCB, one of the largest Christian media ministries in the UK, has a vision of changing lives for good through the power of God’s Word. Our mission is to offer every person, every place, every moment of the day the opportunity to hear, watch or read the word of God in a relevant and engaging way.

FULL-TIME RADIO PRESENTER

Presenting a live daily show on a national Christian radio station like UCB 1 is not for the faint-hearted!

You need to be in control of the studio technology, work with the playout system, keep up-to-date with Christian music, interview a variety of guests, carefully prepare your shows, introduce creative content, be a team player, not take yourself too seriously and let your personal faith shine through in everything you do and say.

UCB will be appointing a new, full-time radio presenter to join the fantastic team who keep the nation entertained and encouraged. Though you would be expected to work on any programme – it is likely you would begin by presenting a live daily show (4pm-7pm) plus recording other shows during the week. So, for this shift, you would work late morning until early evening.

As well as being a skilled radio presenter, you also need to have a natural on-air personality, a sense of humour, an interest in the real world and a genuine passion to see lives changed by the power of God’s word.

Have you got what it takes to create unmissable Christian radio? Take a careful look at the Job Description at www.ucb.co.uk and, if you believe this is for you, send us your application together with a suitable showreel/demo to illustrate your skills as a radio presenter.

Please note that soon after the closing date, we will arrange a Skype conversation with those being considered for interview (see dates below).

This position is based at the Broadcast Centre in Hanchurch near Stoke-on-Trent, just off Junction 15 of the M6. (As there is no public transport so you would need your own transport.)

Salary: Based on skill and experience; plus a selection of staff benefits

Closing Date: Monday 24th April – (12 noon)

Shortlisting (by Skype/Facetime): Wednesday 26th April 2017

Interviews: Thursday 4th May 2017
