The Support Team

The Supporters - Hangers on who you just can't get rid of, yet probably can't survive without. These guys all supposedly have proper jobs but are essential and work in the background of the station. You can be guaranteed, if there's a pub crawl, this lot will be there!

Radio Consultant - Rob

Radio Consultant - Rob

In his spare time from running express this bloke consults and advises about every aspect of the station and how it works with the Union, University and external links. Rob's been there, done that and has many t-shirts. He's been around in the station for so many years it's unbelievable. So many times we've tried to persuade him to take out a huge loan for the station and declare bankruptcy.

Server Support - Jim

Server Support - Jim

Server support and internet engineering, looking after the two servers used to broadcast Pure FM over the internet. Mad, insane and delusional. Jim's been round for five years now and started life at the station as the Head of Technology as well as DJ of the show 'Hot Spot', and also part of the breakfast crew.

Lead Website Programmer - Carl

Lead Website Programmer - Carl

Responsible for our new funky, all-singing, all-dancing, whoop ass website system. Carl is proud to say 'I did that'. He drinks a lot... and when we say a lot, we mean, more than the rest of the committee put together in one night! Back in the days when he was at uni, you could find him on the breakfast show every morning as DJ Sourz. When you meet him, expect a shot of apple sourz and a big hug.

Website Programmer - Holly

Website Programmer - Holly

Originally in the web team when she first joined Pure FM, Holly (aka Holski) became Technical Manager 06-07 and now is the only female member of the support team! Never one to miss a good night out, and so far the only known member of Pure FM to drink Carl under the table.

Website Programmer - Iain

Website Programmer - Iain

Iain has been in and out of Pure FM throughout his university life, but has found his home developing code for the station after being Training and Personnel Manager 06-07. Iain spends most of his time in Germany, but can be coaxed back to Portsmouth for a good social event!

Technical Consultant - Mike

Technical Consultant - Mike

Mike, or Sloppy as he is often known, is never one to miss a night on the lash! Always expect the unexpected! A jack of all trades, Mike hangs around to help out with all stuff that is Pure FM, if he doesn't know about something he probably knows someone who will!

Hardware Support - Ryan

Hardware Support - Ryan

Supplying the station with kick-ass kit for running our IT operations. Sucked into the station when the new site was designed, he started life on the Breakfast Show as DJ Havana alongside Carl, Jim and nameless others. This mans here for life, he just doesn't know it yet. He may have graduated, but his wallet hasn't!
