    Package Description Job Reference Band:

    C
    Contract type: 1x FTC/Attachment- Extend (May to September 2024)

    Location:
    Office base is Quay House, Media City, Salford (NB this is a hybrid role and the successful candidate will balance office/location with home working)

    Salary:
    £26,000 - £35,000 depending on relevant skills, knowledge and experience. The expected salary range for this role reflects internal benchmarking and external market insights.


    Interview Information:
    Successful candidates will be invited to a remote interview W/C 15th April. We're happy to discuss flexible working. Please indicate your choice under the flexible working question in the application.

    There is no obligation to raise this at the application stage but if you wish to do so, you are welcome to.

    Flexible working will be part of the discussion at offer stage.

    Excellent career progression – the BBC offers great opportunities for employees to seek new challenges and work in different areas of the organisation.

    Unrivalled training and development opportunities – our in-house Academy hosts a wide
    Range of internal and external courses and certification.

    Benefits - We offer a competitive salary package, a flexible 35-hour working week for work/ life balance and 26 days (1 of which is a corporation day) with the option to buy an extra 5 days, a defined pension scheme and discounted dental, health care, gym and much more.

    Freelancers are eligible to apply for an internal role if they are on a Worker Contract and they have worked continuously for 6 months.

    If they have worked for less than 6 months continuously or have a break of 3 weeks or more between engagements, they must seek Divisional HR approval to apply for an internal role prior to submitting an application.

    If they are unsure which contract they are on, they can speak to their booker or the HR BP, however if it helps - both a PAYE freelance or Modus Gross contract is considered a Worker contract and covered by the Worker terms found here.

    Job Introduction This role is advertised as part of our BBC Extend programme for disabled people.

    To apply for this role you should identify as deaf, disabled or neurodivergent and must meet either:

    the definition of disability in the Equality Act (2010), or the definition of disability in the Disability Discrimination Act if applying in Northern Ireland.

    You're broadly defined as disabled under both acts if you have a physical or mental impairment that has a substantial and long-term negative or adverse effect on your ability to do normal daily activities.

    This definition includes both apparent and non-apparent conditions and impairments, and medical conditions such as Cancer, HIV or Multiple Sclerosis.

    We are committed to making the process of applying for this role as accessible as possible.

    If you need to discuss adjustments or access requirements for the application process, or have any questions about our Extend programme, please contact the BBC Extend team.

    The BBC are fully committed to providing workplace adjustments to help eliminate barriers in the workface that disabled people face.

    To do this, we have our own dedicated BBC Access and Disability Service that provides assessments and support throughout employment with us.

    If you are successful in applying for this role and require workplace adjustments, we will work with you to get your adjustments in place.

    If you'd like more information on BBC Extend, please visit the BBC Extend webpage. The summer of 2024 promises to be one of the busiest and most exciting periods of any sporting calendar.

    From the climax of the domestic and European football seasons, to the Men's Euros in Germany and then the Summer Olympics and Paralympics in Paris.

    Plus, the summer staples of Wimbledon fortnight and The Open golf championship.

    BBC Radio 5 Live Sport is looking for programme makers to join our team; someone who could help produce the biggest live sporting events, as well as programmes like the Monday Night Club, the Friday Football Social; someone who has the experience to play a key role in development of content ideas and people.

    Away from our live sport programming we would also like to hear from someone with the creativity, skills and experience to produce our digital on demand audio including podcasts such as:
    The Football Daily, The Euros Daily, Rugby Union Weekly, Test Match Special, and Fantasy 606.

    This is a role for someone with a passion for sport, and experience of producing live sport output, live studio debate and podcast production.

    We want BBC Sport's output to reflect and understand the audiences we serve - for example, the different geographical regions of the UK and the experience of people from underrepresented groups.

    We would therefore encourage applications from individuals with skills or experience that can help contribute towards ensuring we maximise the diversity of our coverage and content.

    Main Responsibilities The successful candidate will work in BBC Radio 5 Live Sport as part of our Audio team.

    Working both individually and with others to develop treatments of the highest quality and deliver creative and engaging programme content; working with our on air team you will be able to write and edit scripts; using editing tools you will also have experience of packaging and editing material.

    You will be responsible for the production of distinctive Sport programmes which may be live or recorded.

    Are you the right candidate? You will have a drive to ensure that our output reflects the audiences we serve.

    The successful candidate will need to have some experience of working in audio and/or digital production and be able to demonstrate good editorial judgement and solid journalistic skills.

    You should have a passion for sport and be able to write accurately and succinctly, often in pressurised situations. Experience of how to find and generate sports journalism stories is also essential.

    A wide knowledge of sport is a must but we would be interested to hear of any specialist knowledge and interest.

    We are also looking for candidates who have a strong understanding of digital platforms and podcast making, as well how online tools can be used to promote our content.

    The job will at times be unsupervised and require initiative and creativity, with the high editorial, journalism and production values expected by the BBC.

    You will have some experience of making editorial judgements with the ability to make sound decisions in a pressurised live broadcasting environment.

    Please note the Journalist title relates to the team structure of the department.

    We are looking to appoint Sport output producers with relevant and demonstrable production experience of live or on demand sport content so a Journalist qualification is not essential for the right candidate.

    This is not an entry level role, we're looking for candidates with experience within the area, please review the criteria for the role before applying.

    The right candidate will be expected to do a mix of home and office working, based in MediaCity UK, Salford.

    About the BBC The BBC is committed to redeploying employees seeking suitable alternative employment within the BBC for different reasons and they will be given priority consideration ahead of other applicants.

    Priority consideration means for those employees seeking redeployment their application will be considered alongside anyone else at risk of redundancy, prior to any individuals being considered who are not at risk.

    We don't focus simply on what we do – we also care how we do it. Our values and the way we behave are important to us. Please make sure you've read about our values and behaviours here. Diversity matters at the BBC.

    We have a working environment where we value and respect every individual's unique contribution, enabling all of our employees to thrive and achieve their full potential.

    We want to attract the broadest range of talented people to be part of the BBC – whether that's to contribute to our programming or our wide range of non-production roles.

    The more diverse our workforce, the better able we are to respond to and reflect our audiences in all their diversity.

    We are committed to equality of opportunity and welcome applications from individuals, regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, socio-economic background,
    religion and/or belief. We will consider flexible working requests for all roles, unless operational requirements prevent otherwise. To find out more about Diversity and Inclusion at the BBC, please click - here.
