Join the Road Crew
HAVE YOU GOT WHAT IT TAKES?
We're looking for new recruits for the Century Radio Road Crew - if you're a fun, lively and bubbly individual who is looking for a flexible and varied role at the North West's biggest and best radio station, then this could be the opportunity for you...
WHAT IS THE CENTURY RADIO ROAD CREW?
The Century Road Crew is an ongoing team of bright, lively and fun individuals whose main task is to take the Century Radio brand to the streets of the North West. The team represents everything about Century Radio - as a Crew member you are the eyes, ears, mouths and bodies of Century Radio! Road Crew are an important tool for Century Radio - by getting out and about in the North West, the Crew gives people a personal interaction with their favourite radio station.
WHAT KIND OF PEOPLE ARE MEMBERS OF THE ROAD CREW?
Road Crew members have Century Radio running through their veins! Crew should love the music on Century Radio as much as the listeners. Crew are lively, confident, extrovert individuals - the life and soul of the party. Crew need to be adaptable to any given situation, be able to think on their feet and should be good communicators, able to strike up a conversation with people of all walks of life.
WHAT OTHER QUALITIES SHOULD ROAD CREW HAVE?
Ideally, Crew members will have some experience in hosting or stage work. Often Crew will be asked to speak on a microphone at an event or even go on air to talk about Crew activity - so you need to be confident and commanding. Some presenting or public speaking experience would be ideal, but not absolutely necessary.
All Crew members are required to be holders of a full clean driving licence.
WHAT KIND OF THINGS DO THE ROAD CREW DO?
Century Radio is involved in all kinds of events and activities that require the Road Crew. Crew activities range from assisting presenters at Race For Life events, to taking pictures of listeners enjoying one of our Intimate & Exclusive gigs. You may hit the road in the Century Jeeps, leading a convoy throughout the North West. Or you may find yourself in a seaside town and handing out free ice creams from the Century Ice Cream vans whilst running an impromptu karaoke contest!
No two days are the same in the Century Radio Road Crew, and whilst some events are more exciting and glamorous than others, all Crew members are expected to burst with enthusiasm at each and every event.
HOW OFTEN DOES THE ROAD CREW WORK?
There are no set hours of work - some events have an early start, some involve late nights and many take place over the weekend. There are some busier periods, such as summer and the weeks leading up to Christmas. We aim to get the Crew out and about as much as possible over the next 12 months. The more flexible you can be with your availability, the more hours that will be available for you.
As a member of the Century Radio Road Crew, you are employed on a casual basis - this means that you must be registered with the Inland Revenue as 'self employed' and are therefore responsible for your own income tax and National Insurance.
