The positions are entry-level and the production company has specified that you don’t need any TV experience to apply.
They are keen to encourage applications from demographics that are currently under-represented in the TV industry.
This includes young people just out of school or college, as well as career changers possibly moving from industries which have been badly impacted by the pandemic, such as theatre or live events.
The Scottish crime drama first aired in 2013 and was initially based on the novels by Ann Cleeves.
David Kane brought the series to the screen and has remained the primary script writer through its many seasons.
All trainee placements will be paid at an industry runner rate, with accommodation on Shetland also covered.
