Our Team: How we enrich everyday life:
You’ll be joining our award‑winning Brand Marketing Team, a highly collaborative group that brings Bauer’s much‑loved audio brands to life. We work across creative campaigns, digital activity, events and partnerships that deepen engagement with our audiences.

As part of this team, you’ll work across our award‑winning audio portfolio, with a strong focus on Magic Radio. You’ll work closely with the wider brand marketing team, Magic Radio’s content teams, commercial colleagues and on‑air talent. We’re a supportive team that thrives on creativity, agility and making memorable moments for our listeners across the UK.
