ROLES & RESPONSIBILITIES

You will need to be highly organised and creative to make it in the world of radio production. Radio producers are responsible for the audio content of broadcasts via radio, the internet and other mobile platforms. You will be involved in the entire process, from generating ideas to managing the audience response after a programme.
As a producer you will manage and work with broadcasting assistants, fellow presenters and DJs, engineers, and IT staff. You’ll make sure that shows run as planned and that they are tailored to key audience demographics. You may also be responsible for the business and commercial management of a programme.

Specific responsibilities vary depending on the programme and station, and producers may sometimes take on the role of presenters. In general, tasks include:

• generating and researching ideas for programmes and pitching for commissions
• sourcing potential contributors and interviewees
• coordinate pre-production briefings for presenters, reporters, technical staff and other contributors
• undertaking editing, interviewing and reporting duties as necessary
• managing presenters for both pre-recorded and recorded output
• checking that copyrights are cleared and understanding media law
• converting text, graphics, video and audio files into other formats
• contributing to, and making use of, an archive of audio resources which can be re-used
• responding to audience feedback, referring on to other departments as necessary
