Mark’s radio background includes over 25 years working for the legendary Radio Caroline and many years working for other quality broadcasters.

His radio career started in the late 1970’s. Throughout the 1980’s he was Station Manager of the RBL International Service broadcasting legally on FM from Boulogne on the French Coast to the South Coast of England. The 1990’s saw him working on Invicta Supergold and Invicta FM, at a time when Invicta FM was one of the Top 5 Local Independent Radio Stations in the U.K.

After working for other UK FM stations he moved on to being co-founder of Europe’s first Satellite Rock Radio station, European Klassik Rock (EKR). Broadcasting from the prestigious Maidstone Studios complex in Kent, EKR boasted a very high-quality on-air line-up. Mark presented programmes alongside radio legends such as Dave Cash and Emperor Rosko. He was Head Of Music for EKR and was also in charge of creating the station image and the whole of the music output.

After the closure of EKR, Mark was invited to join the legendary Radio Caroline as Head Of Music and the man in charge of the music output and music programming as Radio Caroline launched its own satellite delivered radio service via the Astra Satellite.
