Two six-month, part-time, paid opportunities for young people aged 18–25.
Devonstream is a not-for-profit online station celebrating audio culture in Devon, south-west England. The station features an eclectic rolling playlist of new and established music, stories, poetry, podcasts and soundscapes. Everything we play has a connection to the county.
We are launching two new projects designed to support local musicians (or all genres):
- Devonstream Sessions will be a series of live performances, recorded for broadcast in professional recording studios. Think Live Lounge, but for up-and-coming Devon artists. We are looking for a producer to lead this project.
- Devonstream Playlist will be a series of radio programmes and podcasts that showcase new music from Devon artists, across a wide range of genres. We are looking for a producer/presenter to lead this project and be its public ‘voice’.
We hope these roles will help the job-holders to:
- Develop their team working and project management skills
- Build their professional network in the music and media industries
- Develop a portfolio, showreel or demo that helps them take the next step in their career
We’re looking for young people with the right attitude and a desire to learn and develop. No formal training, qualifications or previous experience is necessary. We can teach the successful job-holders everything they need to know and provide all the equipment they will need.
