According to the radio station, Limpopo is well-known for its wonderful wildlife and beautiful bushveld.
Jacaranda FM adds, however, that it wants to make Limpopo even more famous as the station seeks to discover the latest talent to hit the airwaves.
“We're looking for someone unique, a curious storyteller who can connect with our diverse listener landscape and someone who is driven to be part of an extraordinary team," says
Jacaranda FM's programming manager Hennie Myburgh.
"Limpopo is such an interesting province. We want to develop a local voice that can connect authentically with our extremely loyal and engaging community there. We're also looking for someone who can bring some new listeners into the fold with a distinct style of presenting to compliment our dynamic mix of music and on-air content," adds Myburgh.
The station says, "If you think you have what it takes to join radio favourites Barney Simon and Sascha Van Gelder — and want to become part of the
Jacaranda FM regional broadcast team — your once-in-a-lifetime opportunity could be waiting for you at The Mall of The North in Polokwane on Saturday, 22 and Saturday, 29 October."
Aspiring radio presenters will have two opportunities to record a demo that could be shortlisted for the finals taking place on Friday, 4 November.
The most impressive presenter will be announced as the latest addition to the
Jacaranda FM team on Monday, 7 November during
Breakfast with Martin Bester between 06:00 and 09:00.
Applicants that are applying must:
- live in Limpopo or be willing to be Limpopo-based
- speak English and Afrikaans
- demonstrate a deep love for the Limpopo province and Jacaranda FM, and
- love music.
"If you can demonstrate captivating storytelling and how to use the intimacy that radio offers to keep our listeners tuned in daily, we'd really love to hear from you," concludes Myburgh.
