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 />
