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 give yourself the opportunity 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.

To find out more about the schemes we offer, you can register to join one of our webinars here. Please note that the webinar for this scheme takes place on Wednesday 10th December at 6pm. If you’re unable to attend or have seen this after that date, keep an eye on our webinar playlist on YouTube where the video will be uploaded.

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

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

• Gaining an understanding of the whole production process and experience in a variety of departments
• Experience all aspects of being a runner on a continuing Drama, working and training with the Artist, 3rd, 2nd & 1st Assistant Directors
• Experience working as part of the Coordinators, Scheduling, Locations, Post‑Production and Production Management teams
• You will be given a broad range of tasks and experiences to equip you for a future career in a TV production environment

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.
