There have never been more opportunities for people looking to build a career in the UK creative industry. There are a huge number of roles available across technical and production, audience and participation, costume and set design, stage management, front of house and operation.
The future is bright, and the creative industries have the potential to drive significant growth over the next decade. Since 2011 the rate of employment in the creative industries has grown by 30% - three times the national average - to over 2 million jobs. In addition, over 1 million people are employed in creative roles outside the creative industries. This growth in employment shows no sign of slowing down. Demand for creative jobs is estimated to increase by 30%–40% by 2030.
Building a successful career in the industry depends heavily on developing the right practical skills, technical knowledge and hands on sector experience.
Creative Industry employers are actively looking to recruit job-ready candidates that can bring value to their organisations straight away - something that The National College is committed to delivering.
