Leeds, United Kingdom BBC Full time

Content- Permanent - Full Time- Leeds, GB, LS9 8AH- BBC PUBLIC SERVICE B'CAST- Job Closing Date: 12/05/2024**THE ROLE**:
**Job Purpose**:
**Salary**: £26,975 - £42,080 depending on relevant skills, knowledge and experience. The expected salary range for this role reflects internal benchmarking and external market insights.

BBC Radio Leeds is the sound of West Yorkshire. Our towns and cities are vibrant, ambitious and diverse, and are surrounded by Yorkshire’s iconic countryside. Our shows are all about celebrating where we live, telling great stories and having fun with our listeners. We’re looking for a talented and enthusiastic social media journalist to join our diverse team, bringing West Yorkshire’s stories alive on-air and online.

**Key Responsibilities and Accountabilities**:
You will be responsible for the day-to-day running of our social media accounts and you will reversion content to appeal to online audiences who might not normally listen to live radio.

You will work alongside Audio production teams, the Regional Social Lead and social media colleagues in News to drive engagement and the growth of referrals from sites like Facebook to BBC products and services, including BBC Sounds.

Your work will promote radio station activities and your creative film-making skills will help you to turn the biggest local talking points into content for social media and our broadcast output. This includes our Leeds United podcast “Don’t Go To Bed Just Yet” and the award-nominated podcast “Rob Burrow: Seven”.

You will be the champion of new social media formats like radio studio visualisation and you will need to be a big believer in teamwork because you’ll often be the person colleagues turn to for help - so you should enjoy helping others to develop their digital skills.
You’ll be at the heart of our social plans for Bradford 2025 UK City of Culture too and have the creative vision to tell the stories of the people who live in the city.

**Knowledge, Skills, Training & Experience**:
This is a great opportunity for someone who loves radio, storytelling and podcasts and believes in the potential to reach new audiences on social media platforms.
You don’t need to have a background in journalism or news - you just need to know a great story when you hear it. An appreciation of local services is important, but you don’t need to have worked in local radio. This is an exciting new opportunity, and a real chance to make an impact.
Ideally, you’ll already have film-making skills and know how to shoot and edit your own material using MoJo kit or DSLR cameras and software like Final Cut Pro. You might also know how to use online publishing tools like Social Flow and iBroadcast. You might also have a good knowledge of social media analytics and know how to spot emerging trends in performance.

This job description is a written statement of the essential characteristics of the job, with its principal accountabilities, incorporating a note of the skills, knowledge and experience required for a satisfactory level of performance. This is not intended to be a complete, detailed account of all aspects of the duties involved.
