Assistant Producer, Owain Wyn Evans Show

Fancy waking up the nation live from Cardiff?

We’re hiring a part-time Assistant Producer to work on the Radio 2 Early Morning Breakfast Show with Owain Wyn Evans.

You’ll bring your own bit of stardust and humour to this fast-paced show where, amongst other things, you’ll be gathering listener interaction, cutting clips and lining up callers and contributors.

The show comes live from BBC Cymru Wales Monday-Friday between 4 and 6.30 am. We run a week-on, week-off rota to keep you fresh, so you would be working one week in every two.

Bengo Media is a nimble and ambitious audio production company, passionate about the content we create. We believe in nurturing people to make them the best they can be so that they are driven to create outstanding outcomes for our clients. To that end, we hire people that chime with our values. Everything else, we’ll help you learn.

This is a part-time, fixed-term contract with a pro-rated salary of £26,000 and we’ll consider a job share. We are committed to equal employment opportunities and to ensuring a diverse and inclusive workforce. If you have a need that we can accommodate in our hiring process, please let us know.

So, if you’re interested in helping us create some amazing content for listeners to Europe’s biggest radio station, drop us a cover letter to say why you’re the person for the job and a c.v. or outline of any experience you think relevant.

Please apply at hello@bengomedia.com by the end of Monday 28th August 2023.
