VOLUNTEERING
@ FBi
What volunteer opportunities are available at FBi?
There are a large number of roles for volunteers to get
involved at the station. This ranges from manning the front desk, working
in the music library, working in communications, membership,
sales and promotion, producing or presenting.
Most volunteers start out on our Frontline. Frontline duties include manning
the front desk, greeting guests, answering phones, responding to emails, assisting
with FBi admin and supporting the music library team. This allows you to demonstrate
your commitment to the station and gain a better understanding of the structure
and roles available within the organisation. If appropriate, after 3-6 months
you may be provided with a chance to move into a new role. Volunteers are encouraged
to be proactive in seeking new opportunities within the organisation.
Getting involved at the station will also expose you to communication with regards
to broadcaster and producer training, production and other special
project opportunities although previous FBi volunteer experience does not
guarantee a place in such courses or projects.
If you have an idea for a new show on FBi, email caroline@fbiradio.com
for more information. You may be asked to apply for one of FBi’s regular training courses.
How do I get involved?
We're looking for volunteers that are able to commit to
at least one half day a week for a minimum of 6 months. Ideally we are looking
for volunteers who are interested in extending their involvement at the station
beyond this. You’ll need to be a current FBi supporter.
If you are interested please apply via our Online Volunteer Application
What happens then?
Please be aware that there are far more applications received
than actual volunteer positions available. As a result gaining a volunteer position
at the station is highly competitive and we cannot always respond to all applications.
If we have a position for you, we will contact you. If there are no position available
at present, and we think you could be an asset to the station, we will email you
to let you know that you’ve been placed on our waiting list and we’ll
notify you of any upcoming volunteer or training opportunities.
