Churn time

This looks like a template for recruiting the 'local' online journalists, who will be joining the BBC at the expense of a range of experienced local radio presenters. 

This, for the "East of England", will be based in either Chelmsford, Cambridge, Ipswich or Northampton. For 'local', read 'regional' throughout. Qualifications ? "Significant recent experience as a journalist, with a good knowledge of production techniques". 

Main Responsibilities

Producing local news content for the BBC website, based at a BBC office, and social media accounts for the East of England and beyond
Responsible for originating and producing stories for the BBC website which can also be used on other outlets, as well as turning around content from wires and press releases.
Working with colleagues to ensure all our journalism works across digital, TV and audio platforms.
Come up with investigation and feature ideas that help us represent the many different sides of life in the East of England.
