About the Team & Office
We’re on the hunt for a confident and creative Announcer to host our Triple M Workday shift in regional WA. Based in our office in Northam, you’ll craft compelling local content, keep the music rolling, and connect with our audience on air, online, and in the community.
About the Market
Northam offers a genuine taste of WA life, with great community connection. About 100km east of Perth in the Avon Valley, it’s close enough for a trip to Perth for the weekend, but far enough to really feel like you’re part of a tight‑knit town of around 6,000 people. As a Triple M Announcer, that means you’re not just a voice on air—you’re a recognised part of the community, plugged into local events, local stories and local personalities.
