CREATIVE – NOVA 93.7

Creative person wanted to work in small space. The space is only 30 seconds long, but we need you to fill it with big ideas. It’s situated in the commercial break on Nova 93.7 Perth.

The only tool you will have to work with (apart from your Creative Director) is sound! So, you will need to be a master of the spoken work, with a passion for music and sfx.

You will also possess a chameleon like ability to assume the brand voice of any given radio advertiser, and adapt their message to ensure it captures the attention of their target audience.

To apply, send a 30 second script that sells the one thing that sets you apart from the other creative types. Email your script to: jfynn@novaentertainment.com.au (deadline – July 31).

 The best scripts will proceed to the next round, where applicants will respond to a client brief and flex their wordsmith abilities.
