Work Experience
As an employer we recognise how important real-life experience is when it comes to getting jobs in the Creative Industries where competition is tough.
Running parallel to our Schools & Colleges programme, our work experience programme gives support beyond the classroom.
Work Experience at Portsmouth Guildhall (The Guildhall Trust)
Spend a week exploring what it’s really like to work in a busy cultural organisation — from Front of House and Marketing, to Events, Programming, and Technical Production. You’ll be based at The Base at Portsmouth Guildhall, supported by the Learning & Participation team. This programme is designed for Year 10–11 students completing school work placements. We take a small group of students at the same time, and ask everyone to approach the week professionally.
During the week, you’ll need to be able to attend every day for the full week. We’ll ask you to join in, try new things, and do your best — and in return we’ll give you support and meaningful, practical experience.
