Salary: up to 32,000

Company Description

Our Media is a leading special-interest content business, based in the buzzing, creative city of Bristol. We're home to market-leading brands in craft, cycling, science and nature, homes and music.

We help our audiences pursue their passions through highly trusted, original content - in print, video and online. Our much-loved brands include BBC Science Focus, BBC Wildlife Magazine, Your Home, Gathered.how, BikeRadar and Cycling Plus.

We also have an award-winning content agency that works with major charities, brands and membership organisations to help them tell their stories and engage audiences better - in print, video, and online.

Position

We are looking for a Presenter and Scriptwriter to lead the creation of road and gravel video content on BikeRadar.

Whether you're an established presenter or a future star in the making, this is an exciting role that will see you create market-leading video content that our audience loves.

You will generate compelling ideas for editorial and commercial video, write scripts that entertain, inform and engage viewers, and act as lead presenter.

You'll understand what makes road cyclists and gravel riders tick, in both the UK and US, and what turns a great idea into a high-performing video.

Crucially, you'll be able to combine your creative spark and cycling expertise, with data insight and an understanding of YouTube trends/tactics to drive audience satisfaction.

With tech at the heart of BikeRadar's video content, you'll thrive delivering helpful reviews and buying advice to our audience. You'll also report on the latest pro tech trends and uncover the tech that matters at the world's biggest races.

While video is at the heart of this role, you will work closely with the wider content team to contribute to BikeRadar.com, the BikeRadar Podcast and Cycling Plus magazine, ensuring your content has the chance to shine and reach new audiences across multiple platforms.
