Positive Action Scheme 2025 - Podcasting & Audio Storytelling - BAME
The Guardian believes there should be a better representation of our diverse society in the media and, to break down barriers, each summer they run a work-experience scheme for those considering a career in journalism.
This year their London office is running a paid work shadowing scheme for Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic(BAME) applicants interested in podcasting and audio storytelling.
Successful applicants will spend two weeks in their audio department, during June or July, on podcasts such as Today in Focus, Politics Weekly, Science Weekly, and Football Weekly.
Working alongside their producers, editors and hosts, your tasks will include fact-checking stories and scripts, and assisting with research tasks and interview booking.
You'll have a chance to pitch story ideas and sit in on recordings and edit sessions.
You will also have an experienced journalist as a mentor to offer careers advice.
