Testimonals

I have known Jason for several years, dating back to 2009. Whilst I admired his dedication; professionalism and talent from afar – it wasn’t until I arrived in Dubai in 2011 /2012 and became his direct report line that I got to work with him.

Jason is a huge talent – who gets radio, gets how to communicate and how to present entertaining radio. He was a joy to work with – never holding back on creative ideas and looking to better both himself and the business.

- John Clayton – Coast 103.2 Dubai Programme Director
I was Jason’s Programme Director whilst he worked at Fox FM in Oxfordshire and found him to be a supremely professional radio presenter, highly proficent technically with a wonderful vocal delivery. Above all I valued his on-air consistency and off air friendly manner.

- Phil Angell – Fox FM Programme Director
I’ve worked with Jason for over 20 years and he continues to be a fantastic radio presenter. He still delivers compelling, entertaining and engaging radio, whilst being reliable and a team player.

- Richard Dodd – Signal 107 Programme Controller
Jason is a pro. He takes a real effort to understand the bigger goals and aspirations and looks at the part he can play in that. He’s never short of ideas and always plays the team game. On air he sounds assured and warm – that’s what you get off air too.

- Euan McMurrow – Key 103 Deputy Programme Director
Jason King worked for Real Radio North West as a presenter. The shows he presented were a mix of local and network. He was a great member of the team – always going above and beyond to the get the job done well. He was reliable and really understood and delivered on-target content required by the format. He’s a great talent with bags of experience and a pleasure to work with.
