Tuesday 1st May | 5.30 for 6.00 | Prospect Building, University of Sunderland, SR6 0DD
Whenever you ask people who work in radio about how they got where they are, you’ll find some spent years entertaining patients on hospital radio while others did wacky things on student radio (some did both!). Some of them found paid work in this profession quickly and others only made it after a long wait, doing other things. Some will have specifically studied radio, while others haven’t.
Every story is different and it seems there’s no one single route that everyone follows.
But are there secrets we can learn? Is it purely about talent and hard work or do you just have to be in the right place at the right time?
We’ve assembled a panel from different disciplines across the industry and they definitely have at least one thing in common; they are all media graduates from the University of Sunderland.
Collectively, they work with some of the biggest brands in radio and all have stories to share and tips to offer.
For anyone looking to break into radio, this is an event not to be missed!
The panelists are:
Tom Cotton (Head of Music, Amazing Radio)
Gaynor Marshall (Producer, Nightowls, Metro Radio)
Ross Mitchell (Broadcast Assistant, BBC Radio Leeds/BBC introducing)
Chris Stevens (Group Deputy Programme Director, GMG Radio)
Vicky Warham (Presenter, Q Radio/Rock FM)
