Devaweb offers help for radio presenters at risk

Production and imaging company Devaweb is offering a free presenter showreel service to any radio presenter whose job is affected by the recent changes announced by Bauer Media.

With the news that a significant number of stations are going to be closing to become part of national networks, the Devaweb team says it wants to ensure presenters will have the tools to help them find their next jobs, be that on-air, hosting events, presenting podcasts or as a voiceover.

Devaweb’s Managing Director Chris Stevens told RadioToday: “Our team has first-hand experience of takeovers, having all been at GMG Radio when their stations were sold to Global. We know how uncertain things can feel, and we want to do whatever we can to help our colleagues across the industry at this time.”

Presenters can send their best links to Devaweb, who will craft a professional showreel that can be shared with future employers and on social media.

Devaweb works with clients around the world, with audio heard on over 50 stations in the UK alone.
