The 麻豆社 is full of opportunities, but is there a place for people like you and me here?
I'm just about to go on air to read the 1:00 news. But of course, my job, the one that the viewers see, is just one of so many. There's so many different roles here at the 麻豆社.
Now, if you're interested in AI, data, or machine learning, you won't just be predicting trends. You'll be helping us transform how millions interact with the 麻豆社.
Or maybe you're into coding. Well you can develop your knowledge of different networks and systems, or even start a career in cyber security.
If you're a numbers person, you could join one of the finance teams here at the 麻豆社. The finance teams are responsible for keeping shows on budget and making sure everyone gets paid. And that's really important.
Or maybe you fancy joining one of our HR teams, helping create a culture where everyone can thrive and do their best work.
You could be one of the next generation of media systems engineers, helping the 麻豆社 to deliver content across TV, radio, and digital platforms. Or you could be one of our operators. Why not try some studio directing or operating one of our cameras? Together, we make sure that the show always goes on.
So, if you want to work in production, you could be a researcher, a production coordinator, or do what I'm doing as a floor manager and work on the news, which is what I'm doing today.
Are you passionate about telling stories that could shape the headlines people are talking about locally, nationally, even globally? Then why not think about a career in journalism?
Good afternoon. Welcome to the news at 1.
And we don't just work in English. We create content in over 40 languages. With bases around the UK, your talent is needed everywhere.
You don't need to fit in a mould to make it here at the 麻豆社. Whoever you are, there's a place for you and your voice matters.
Isn't that right, Pudsey?
