EDGEUCATION
SUMMARY
At EDGE Creative, we’re committed to nurturing the next generation of digital marketers and creatives. Through our apprenticeship programmes, marketing work experience opportunities, and partnerships with institutions such as BMet College, Birmingham City University, and the Sandwell Family of Colleges, we give young people the chance to gain hands-on experience, build confidence, and develop the skills they need to take their first steps into the industry. It’s a way for us to support early careers while also strengthening the local job market.
WHAT WE DO
Through our placements and internships, students and graduates get the chance to build real-world skills across a range of areas from long-form content writing and social media copy to campaign planning and delivery. Interns work closely with our team, shadowing individuals in different departments, contributing to live client projects, and getting involved behind the scenes on content shoots and digital campaigns. We also support their professional development, offering advice on sharpening LinkedIn profiles and preparing for life in the creative industries.
