Title: Radio 4 at Wood Norton.
Post by Administrator on Jun 30^th, 2010, 4:14pm

Job Application.
An idyllic location. Engineering Training Department.

Only those with experience of Type "A", Type "B", Marconi, or PYE sound desks need apply.
This is a very short- term contract.

The Whole of Audio & Music production and management, along with Radio 3 and Persian TV will move into Bush House for three weeks this November as Broadcasting House and Egton Wing empties for essential system tests.

BBC Arabic will shift from Egton Wing to TV Centre,
Radio 4 commissioning into neighbouring Henry Wood House and the network’s continuity and presentation operation, 100 miles away to Wood Norton in Worcestershire.

Testing of power supplies, lighting, heating/ cooling, fire alarms, lifts and other essential services will be put through their paces over a total of ten weeks, from September 14, but the critical three week period, starting November 1, is when the work would be too disruptive to allow staff and broadcast operations to remain.
