BBC Radio 5 Live is the voice of the UK, and the home of live news and sport. It's BBC Radio's main outlet for breaking news, bringing its audience major stories as they happen, and providing context with wide-ranging analysis and discussion. As presenter of 5 Live Lates, you'll anchor a three-hour news show four days a week, serving 5 Live's evening and late-night community from the station's studios in Salford. An experienced broadcaster and journalist, you'll also have the warmth and humour to connect with the late-night radio audience.
You'll have a demonstrable knowledge of UK and global news as well as a comprehensive understanding of domestic politics, making sense of late embargo stories, breaking newspaper headlines and political developments in UK and the US. You'll have an infectious passion for sport that connects instantly with our audience backed up with broad knowledge, as the show inherits audience from 5 Live Sport, continuing live post-match reaction on commentary evenings as well as responding to significant sports events around the world that may be live in this airtime. A natural broadcaster, you'll be able to engage, inform, and entertain audiences, appealing to news and sport fans of all ages, from all backgrounds across the UK.
