EdComs is a company whose work is all about education and learning. We help businesses, charities and the Government to produce fun, interesting resources that are used in classrooms across the UK.
Our new Youth Advisory Board (YAB) is an opportunity for you to get involved in a real work environment and to influence the kinds of work we do. You’ll gain valuable skills to help you stand out from the crowd when you’re applying for jobs or to study at university.
We’re looking for 12 people aged 14–18 in London to come and work directly with us, across all our teams: Digital, Film, Research, Projects and Live. The opportunities will be really varied, you could be involved in trialling new online resources, developing scripts for films or conducting research amongst your friends.
You don’t need any previous experience!
What’s important is your commitment, enthusiasm and creativity.
We are looking for 12 young people who:
- Are available over the course of a school year (September–July)
- Are ready, willing and able to get involved in new opportunities
- Are committed and passionate
- Are happy to share their opinion
- Are available to attend YAB group meetings which will be held at our EdComs office in Waterloo, London.
These meetings will be held on weekdays (in the holidays or after school) and weekends. We anticipate that the YAB will meet at least once a month. Travel expenses will be covered.
In return we promise to offer you...
- Hands-on training and support
- Great learning experiences, developing work and life skills
