Working at Tate

Tate Publishing is one of the world’s leading art publishers, and a central part of Tate, home of the national collection of British art, and international contemporary and modern art.

We're looking for an Editorial Assistant to join our Publishing team and work towards attaining a Level 3 Publishing Assistant Apprenticeship qualification with provider LDN. As an apprentice you will spend 20% of your total time completing training and will be assessed on training you undertake both in the role and with the Apprenticeship provider. Please note that we are not able to offer apprenticeships to those with an equivalent or higher level qualification in the same area.

The successful candidate will have a passion for art, and for Tate’s mission to increase the public’s understanding and enjoyment of art and the collection. We're looking for someone who is able to demonstrate a commitment to diversity and inclusivity and with enthusiasm for working as part of a small team in this busy and varied role.

This role is offered on a fixed-term contract lasting 15 months and is scheduled to start in January.

We want to offer this opportunity to people who would benefit most from the Apprenticeship scheme at Tate both in terms of furthering their personal or professional development and who, in return, will bring a new and different perspective to our work. Tate aims to attract and retain talented people from all backgrounds, and these opportunities are for people to learn and develop new skills. We particularly encourage applications from black, ethnic minority, and disabled applicants as these groups are currently underrepresented in the cultural sector.

In addition to a spectacular place of work at Tate Britain, Pimlico, we offer great benefits including discounts in our shops and cafes, Employee Assistance Programme and free entry to exhibitions for you and your family and friends. At Tate we have a blended working policy and are keen to support flexible working arrangements where possible.

As a member of the Disability Confident Scheme, we interview all disabled applicants who meet the essential criteria for a job vacancy. Our jobs are like our galleries, open to all. Tate Commerce is a wholly owned subsidiary of Tate and covenants all profits to support Tate’s work and collection.
