What will you do

As a Production Apprentice, this is brilliant opportunity to learn, grow, and contribute.
In BBC Local Radio, no two days are ever the same. You’ll get a chance to work across a variety of content, which could involve occasional early mornings, evenings and weekends.
You could be working on:
  • Live radio programmes recording and editing audio
  • Meeting contributors
  • Producing video for our social media content and regional TV output
  • Crafting audio for BBC Sounds.
You’ll be learning both on and off the job. This means that as well as learning on your placement at the BBC, you’ll also attend learning blocks (up to a week at a time) with our learning provider,  working towards an industry recognised apprenticeship qualification - Level 3 Production Assistant.  Learning blocks will be a mixture of in-person and virtual delivery. For more information on the apprenticeship standard you will be studying, please visit this link.

Qualifications

We’re interested in your passion for working at the BBC and your enthusiasm for delivering world-class content and operational excellence to our audiences. We’re not focused on your qualifications; instead, we look for potential and offer you the opportunity to apply your transferable strengths and experience to work in different ways. If you can bring some of these skills and experiences, along with transferable strengths, we’d love to hear from you and encourage you to apply if you:
  • Thrive on variety in your work
  • Have good communication skills
  • Love being part of a team
This scheme is aimed at non-graduates. If you have a degree and you’re interested in similar roles at the BBC, we recommend applying for jobs at the BBC careers site or having a look at our other apprenticeship schemes.
