WE ARE BBC STUDIOS

A globally renowned media company borne of the BBC. We make and distribute the world’s most sought‑after TV, audio and digital content. Our ambition is to be the home of the most powerful, entertaining and inspiring stories for people all around the world.

Join us as an apprentice at BBC Studios to kick‑start your career in a job you’ll love. We’re committed to your skills and talent development. You’ll learn on‑the‑job, developing your knowledge and skills in an area that interests you, while working towards your apprenticeship qualification with one of our learning providers.

This is your chance to launch a career at the very heart of British broadcasting. We’re looking for individuals with a passion to find out how we make content and bring ideas to life. Depending on your placement area, you could be working behind the scenes on exciting productions, from gripping dramas to the thrill of live radio, and gain a recognised qualification while learning on the job.

This is your opportunity to widen your production knowledge while working on content that matters to millions.

Based in Roath Lock, Wales, you will be working on the long‑running multi‑award winning Saturday night drama series, Casualty. Working in the Production Office, you’ll gain an understanding in all aspects of how the production works.

As a Production apprentice, this is a brilliant opportunity to learn, grow, and contribute – you could be:

• Gaining an understanding of the whole production process from script to screen.
• Gaining experience in all departments through working in the office, on set and on location.
• Being given a broad range of tasks and experiences to equip you for your future career in TV.

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 (a week or two at a time) with our learning provider, working towards an industry recognised qualification, Level 3 Diploma in Digital and Creative Media. Learning blocks will be delivered in‑person.
