IS HIRING!
Play a key role in shaping our next chapter.
Applications are currently open for three vital roles within the Bido Lito! team.
The following positions represent opportunities to join an established institution in Liverpool’s independent creative scene as we grow and develop. All positions
are part-time, for a fixed number of hours per month: there is lots of flexibility. Bido Lito! is all about championing and supporting emerging talent; whether
that be the musicians we feature or the members of our team. Many previous contributors and team members have gone on to achieve great success in future
careers in the music, media and varied sectors.
All applicants will need to display a positive and flexible ‘can do’ attitude, a brilliant taste in music, plus the ability to multitask, hit deadlines and stay calm
under pressure. Though we expect team members to have a presence in the office, with good time management this can be shaped around your existing
commitments and interests, whether that be work, study or creative projects.
Application deadline for all posts is 5pm, Monday 28th May. Interviews will take place on 7th and/or 8th June. Anticipated start date is 2nd July (flexible).
