Your foot. Our door.

It’s time for new voices to be heard.

12-month Diversity Production Training Scheme.
Generous training allowance.
Opportunities at TV and new media production companies nationwide.

You could be developing story ideas for Skins, joking with Justin on the Friday Night Project or flirting with Gordon on the F Word. You could even be whipping up widgets for one of our websites. One thing’s for sure, all your talent and passion will finally get a chance to shine. Talent. Passion. We’ll say it again, because those are what matter. Not the fact that you might be disabled, from an ethnic minority, never seen the inside of a university, too old for a career change, or a hundred other reasons why you think you’ll never get a foot in the door. We are keen to encourage under-represented voices like yours to be heard and to apply for this training opportunity. So what are you waiting for? Start pushing.
