Join the BBC as a Production Assistant Apprentice in the Gaelic Children's team, working on exciting productions and gaining hands-on experience across various projects.
As a Production Assistant Apprentice, you will have the opportunity to work in a wide range of roles, providing a great insight into working in television/media production. You will see first-hand how the Riverside studio is run and the importance of props and set dressing in this production. You will also gain experience on the ideas and scripting process for both CBeebies & CBBC ALBA and be part of the Outreach team that visits GME schools throughout the country.
Your key responsibilities and impact will include:
- Helping to develop ideas and stories by researching content and finding guests and participants.

- Learning to use technical equipment and specialist software by supporting teams with cameras, sound, lighting, and editing.
- Creating content for multiple platforms, including social media, under the guidance of experienced professionals.
You will study for your industry-recognised apprenticeship qualification, learning both on and off the job.
