And the role doesn't stop when you leave the studio. You'll be a highly visible representative of Triple M Coffs Harbour, getting out into the community, hosting outside broadcasts, attending events and promotions, building relationships and creating content across audio, digital and social platforms.

Working closely with the Content Director and broader content team, you'll help shape the station's sound, audience strategy and presence in the local market.

• Create and contribute to digital and social content, including short-form video and content that extends the show beyond radio.
• Stay across current affairs, sport, entertainment, music, pop culture and local conversations to ensure the show is relevant.
• Host outside broadcasts and represent Triple M at events, client activations, competitions and community activities.
• Build strong relationships with listeners, clients, community organisations, local businesses and key community figures.
• Assist with the coordination and execution of station promotions, competitions and giveaways.
• Work collaboratively with the wider content team and contribute ideas that help grow the Triple M brand and audience.
• Bring energy, personality and authenticity to every interaction – on-air, online and in the community.

What you’ll need

• Experience as a radio announcer, preferably with experience hosting a live breakfast or other high-energy radio show.
• A strong on-air personality and the ability to connect with an audience in an authentic, entertaining and memorable way.
• A proven ability to develop compelling content ideas, content arcs, benchmarks and promotions.
• A genuine understanding of what makes great radio and how to turn an idea into compelling on-air content.
• A strong connection to your local community and a willingness to get out from behind the microphone and be part of it.
• The ability to create and contribute to digital and social content, including short-form video.
• Strong knowledge of entertainment, sport, music, pop culture and the conversations that matter to your audience.
• The confidence to represent Triple M at outside broadcasts, events, client activations and community activities.
• Strong communication, presentation, writing and content creation skills.
• Excellent organisational skills, with the ability to plan ahead while reacting quickly to what's happening around you.
• A collaborative mindset, with the ability to take feedback, contribute ideas and support the broader content team.
• A passion for Triple M, great radio, digital content and audience growth.
• A current driver's licence and flexibility to work outside standard hours when required for events and activations.
