BCFE Radio Jobs Treble

Posted on May 19, 2021

Congratulations on some very recent appointments of former radio students.

The Team also just recruited 3 current radio students for paid work in the station and show

Domino Effect 1 – Helena O’Toole

Helena O’Toole was Senior producer of the Niall Boylan Talk Show on Classic Hits, however she recently left to become producer of NewsTalk Breakfast with Shane Coleman & Ciara Kelly.

This effectively means the whole day’s output of Newstalk has BCFE students involved at producer or senior producer role.

Helena was a very regular visitor and recruiter of BCFE Radio students since she graduated. Helena had been Senior Producer of the Niall Boylan Show as it won national and international radio awards. She had been first recruited by Niall for work experience at a talk he was giving to the radio students.

Domino Effect 2 – Aisling Lynch

The role of Senior Producer which was then taken over by recently graduated Radio and then Degree student, Aisling Lynch. The extremely talented all-rounder Aisling had been producer of the show and was then promoted to the role of Senior Producer.

Aisling is a highly gifted broadcaster and can regularly be heard on air during the show too.

Domino Effect 3 Ruth Abbott

With Aisling becoming Senior Producer, the role of Producer now being vacant, was then filled by former radio and then degree student Ruth Abbott. Ruth had first started doing work experience on the show and then started being employed as a part time producer for cover work, before now being made producer in her own right. Ruth is also a very talented presenter and can also be heard on air too. When we remember her 21^st birthday celebrations being snuck into a radio networking class we were doing just over a year ago and add to that the fact she only graduated weeks ago from BCFE, it suggests Ruth is already off to a head start.

All very talented people and we miss them all in the college and huge congratulations to all.

All of these former and indeed some current students can be frequently heard on air on The Niall Boylan Talk Show on Classic Hits from 10:20pm - 11pm Monday to Thursday.
