Arts, design, media and communications
Art directors set and hold the visual direction for a campaign, publication, product, or production. They brief and guide designers, illustrators, photographers, and other specialists, then judge the returned work against the concept and the constraints agreed with the client.
Arts, design, media and communications
UX designers shape how a digital product behaves - the flows, structure, and interface people move through to get something done. The work combines evidence from research and analytics with wireframes, prototypes, and close collaboration with engineers and product managers.
Arts, design, media and communications
UX researchers plan and run studies that tell a product team what people actually do and where they get stuck. Methods range from moderated interviews and usability tests to surveys and analysis of behavioural data, and the output is evidence a team can act on rather than opinion.
Arts, design, media and communications
Broadcast journalists research, write, and present news and current affairs for radio, television, and streaming outlets. The job runs to hard transmission times, so verifying a claim quickly and writing clearly for the ear are core skills.
Arts, design, media and communications
Journalists find, check, and write stories for newspapers, magazines, websites, and wire services. Much of the work is unglamorous: building contacts, reading documents, chasing responses, and making sure every claim can be stood up before publication.
Arts, design, media and communications
Copywriters write the words that sell, explain, or persuade: adverts, websites, emails, product pages, scripts, and campaign lines. Strong copy starts from a proposition and an audience rather than a blank page, so briefing and research take up much of the job.
Arts, design, media and communications
Technical writers turn complex products and procedures into documentation people can actually follow: user guides, API references, help centres, and standard operating procedures. The job depends on interviewing experts, testing the steps yourself, and structuring information so it can be found.
Arts, design, media and communications
Copy editors correct and improve written material before it is published: grammar, spelling, consistency, structure, and factual sense. They apply a house style, query anything that looks wrong, and protect the publication from avoidable errors.
Arts, design, media and communications
Content strategists decide what content an organisation needs, who it is for, and how it should be structured, governed, and measured. The role covers audits, taxonomy, tone of voice, and publishing workflow rather than writing every piece personally.
Arts, design, media and communications
Social media managers plan, publish, and moderate an organisation's presence across social platforms, and answer for how it behaves in public. The role mixes content production with community moderation, paid promotion, and reporting on what actually worked.
Arts, design, media and communications
Public relations specialists manage how an organisation is understood by the media, the public, and other audiences. Day to day that means pitching stories, preparing spokespeople, drafting statements, and handling questions when something goes wrong.
Arts, design, media and communications
Communications officers produce and coordinate an organisation's own messages - newsletters, intranet posts, web copy, reports, and announcements - for staff and external audiences. In public bodies and charities the role usually also covers plain-language guidance, accessibility, and a record of what was said when.
Arts, design, media and communications
Translators convert written material from one language into another so that it reads naturally and means the same thing. Specialisms differ sharply: legal, medical, technical, marketing, and literary translation each carry their own terminology and their own risks.
Arts, design, media and communications
Curators research, develop, and interpret a museum or gallery collection, and shape what is acquired, displayed, and how it is explained. The role combines subject scholarship with cataloguing, care of objects, exhibition planning, and public engagement.
