A new apprenticeship will give a young person a kickstart in a journalism career by working at the Manchester Evening News and the Financial Times whilst they gain their journalism qualification.
The 18-month programme will see one individual learn what it’s like to work in a newsroom for both outlets as they seek out their own stories and break the news that matters.
The Financial Times apprenticeship scheme is open to people who do not have a degree, and particularly those living in Greater Manchester and from minority ethnic backgrounds and disadvantaged socio-economic groups.
