Working In Industry
Take some time over the summer before your course starts and do some research into the industry you're training to become part of. Find out as much information you can regarding your chosen career path, from where you start to where you could go. Use the information below as a starting point and see what else you can find out.
Who inspires you and where you do you want to go? Do you want to work for yourself or get a job working for a creative company? Collate all your research using one of the platforms you're going to be working on or in your preferred format — we may even ask you to share it with us when you start your course.
WORKING AS JEWELLER
WORKING AS JEWELLER
A jewellery designer creates designs for mass production, or for pieces to be made individually or in small numbers by them or other craft workers. This role may involve using different metals to make jewellery, such as silver, gold and other materials such as, resins, wood, glass etc.
A self-employed designer-maker would also need to market and sell their work, either directly from their studio or on a website, at craft fairs, or through shops and galleries.
