John Schofield studied a degree in Archaeology, followed by a PhD that involved fieldwork, collecting artefacts from the surfaces of ploughed fields and making sense of them. He talks about what drew him to the job and offers advice on how to develop a heritage career.  Lizzie Byrne always knew she wanted to be a singer, but didn't really know what paths were available. After graduating she joined a contemporary group and started singing freelance with small chamber choirs. She spoke to us about the importance of networking early in your career.

Musical instrument maker Musical instrument makers produce and maintain instruments. For many instrument makers carrying out repairs is part of their job. They may work on a range of instruments, however most will specialise in a particular one. Makers may occasionally specialise in a group of instruments such as wooding (clarinet, flute etc).
