You will support the Assistant Producers and Producers in delivering a suite of digital resources that could include video, text, infographics, interactives and games, inspiring and supporting young learners in their formal education.

• You will be able to set up and run user-testing or audience insight sessions and have basic project management skills and an ability to deliver key elements of larger project management workflows.
• You will also have the ability to accurately edit text for publication and experience of working with writers and/or commissioning written content and experience of digital editing software.

Diversity matters at the BBC. We have a working environment where we value and respect every individual's unique contribution, enabling all of our employees to thrive and achieve their full potential.

We want to attract the broadest range of talented people to be part of the BBC – whether that’s to contribute to our programming or our wide range of non-production roles. The more diverse our workforce, the better able we are to respond to and reflect our audiences in all their diversity.

We are committed to equality of opportunity and welcome applications from individuals, regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, socio-economic background, religion and/or belief. We will consider flexible working requests for all roles, unless operational requirements prevent otherwise.
