ARTS + HERITAGE<br />

Work in museums, public and commercial galleries, archaeology organisations, auction<br />

houses, theatres, the music industry, performing companies, venues, historic sites – and<br />

many specialist organisations.<br />

This sector covers a huge range of roles, from artistic (designers, performers, artists, writers)<br />

to ‘arts management/administration’ requiring organisational, operational and leadership<br />

skills. Other roles use research or academic skills (‘curatorial and specialist’ jobs), involve<br />

teaching or training (‘arts education’) or technical skills (eg, fashion or set design; art<br />

conservation).<br />
