Job Introduction
BBC Education exists to transform lives through learning and education. That clear vision drives everything we do as we lead the overall education strategy for the BBC.
BBC Children's and Education is looking for an experienced Producer to lead a team taking BBC Bitesize Careers Tour onto the road to deliver careers advice and inspiration to 125,000 secondary school pupils. In partnership with the Gatsby Charitable Foundation, the tour will visit over 100 schools across the UK, over a period of 5 months. Each visit will involve delivering 4 x hour long careers sessions, hosted by BBC Talent, featuring a panel of inspiring guests from a variety of industries and job roles who will aim to change perceptions, inspire ambition and highlight a variety of career pathways.
Main Responsibilities
The successful applicant will be responsible for the overall scheduling and delivery of the Bitesize Careers Tour in secondary schools across the UK. You will be responsible for the day to day management of a large team on location and in the office.
