Cardiff, Cardiff, United Kingdom ENGINEERINGUK Full time

About ENGINEERINGUK, we're the industry leaders in early careers and are committed to your skills and talent development. As one of the world's most creative and technologically advanced organisations for the last 100 years, an apprenticeship at BBC Sport means the opportunity to learn from the most respected and experienced professionals in the business.

You will gain on-the-job experience while working towards the NCTJ Diploma in Journalism and a Level 5 apprenticeship qualification. This role will be based with our renowned BBC Sport teams.

As a Level 5 Journalist Apprentice, you will:

  • Work alongside our sports teams to develop your journalistic skills, creating and delivering quality content for TV, online, digital, and audio.
  • Get involved with all newsroom activities, such as sourcing and securing suitable guests or contributors, writing briefs for your team or shooting and editing films.
  • Learn from and work with experts in the field.

The L5 Journalist Apprenticeship combines academic training with practical on-the-job experience. As an apprentice, you will follow the Journalist Apprenticeship standard (curriculum) and work towards an industry recognised qualification, the NCTJ Diploma in Journalism.

  • Essential Journalism - how to get the story and develop strong writing skills.
  • Ethics - understanding the Ofcom Code which guides broadcast journalists.
  • Essential Media Law - the toolbox no journalist can be without, and every editor wants to know you have.
  • Journalism for a Digital Audience - understand how digital publishing organisations work and how to write brilliant stories across all digital platforms.
  • Sports Journalism - understand how to cover sports stories.
  • E-portfolio - to include ten pieces of journalism, published on any appropriate platform.

This scheme is aimed at non-graduates. If you have a degree or the NCTJ diploma in Journalism and want to train as a Journalist at BBC Sport, we recommend you apply to the Level 7 Journalist Apprenticeship instead.

To be eligible for an apprenticeship at BBC Sport, you must:

  • Be aged 18 or over when the apprenticeship starts.
  • Be eligible to work in the UK full-time for the duration of the apprenticeship contract.

We offer industry-leading training through the BBC Academy and our learning providers. You'll also receive dedicated support from a Team Manager and Scheme Specialist, plus training and mentoring by industry professionals.

We're looking for someone who is passionate about producing content on different platforms, including social media, and has a flexible approach to the pace of work.

Salary: £21,840 per annum, 35-hour working week, 25 days of annual leave and a defined pension scheme. Plus discounted dental, health care, gym and much more.
