Three great jobs promoting great NZ music!
NZ On Air, the Broadcasting Commission, successfully funds and promotes diverse new NZ music to broadcast and online audiences. As part of a revamp of our music funding and promotion schemes we are looking for three special people. Two are new staff positions replacing two contract plugging jobs, and there's a new one for a year's contract.
Broadcast Promotions Executive (Auckland)
You'll play a key role successfully promoting new NZ music
to diverse radio and music television stations mainly in New
Zealand but also in Australia. You'll have had proven success in
music promotion, be very knowledgeable about broadcast trends, have
great artist and industry relationships, and a superb general
knowledge about NZ music. This is a permanent position.

You'll be the linchpin for getting new music into the
hands of broadcasters and online platforms. You'll liaise with
record companies and repertoire owners to access great songs and
get them compiled, uploaded and out there as part of NZ On Air's
priority music campaigns. And you'll be a website whizz. This is a
permanent position
Digital Music Strategist (Auckland or Wellington)
You'll consider the best digital media options to promote
NZ music to diverse NZ audiences on different platforms, wade
through all the possibilities to identify the gaps, and develop and
roll out a crisp business plan. You'll be a clever web strategist,
experienced in thinking outside the square and delivering practical
solutions. And you'll love music. This is a fixed term contract for
one year.
