Creative Jobs Christmas Calendar 2024
Tuesday, 26 November, 2024 — Help us celebrate creative careers in our creative jobs advent calendar.
<p dir="ltr">Our creative industries are growing at three times the rate of the economy as a whole and creating jobs at three times the UK average. The creative industries contributed £125bn to the UK economy in 2022, representing almost 6% of the economy. From 2020 to 2022 alone over 175,000 new jobs were created. </p>
