“All of our commissions must be original, distinctive in their own genre, focused on their target audience, and offer a clear sense of how they will enhance our service to our viewers. We are looking for the best available creativity and talent in the sector, and will particularly welcome new talent in appropriate roles, including front of camera.”
RTÉ has updated its commissioning processes by introducing an electronic system by which producers can submit programme proposals or ideas.
