• Work on location, in studios, galleries, and BBC offices
• Learn and apply best practices in production management, health & safety, and compliance

On successful completion of your apprenticeship, you will be able to apply for job roles such as a Production Management Assistant, Production Secretary or Production Coordinator, depending on experience both inside and outside of the BBC.

• Team player, great communicator, and skilled at working with people
• Resilient, responsible and calm & focused approach to challenging situations
• Flexible, motivated, and adaptable to the pace of work
• Able to manage multiple deadlines and demands on your time

If you have not achieved these qualifications, you will be required to achieve Functional Skills Level 2 before the end of your apprenticeship when you take your end‑point assessment
