Tattoo Artist Apprenticeship – Addikted to Ink | Melbourne

Start Your Career in Tattooing

Have you always wanted to become a tattoo artist but don't know where to start?

Addikted to Ink is looking for passionate and dedicated individuals to join our 9-month tattoo apprenticeship program, designed to help aspiring artists develop the skills, discipline and experience needed to build a career in the tattoo industry.

The program combines studio experience, mentorship, artistic development and practical training, with a strong focus on black & grey realism.

You'll begin by learning the foundations of working in a professional tattoo studio before progressively developing your drawing, design and tattooing skills as you move through the program.

We're Looking For People Who:

• Have a genuine passion for art and tattooing
• Are dedicated, reliable and willing to learn
• Take feedback and direction positively
• Are comfortable starting from the fundamentals
• Have a strong work ethic and commitment
• Are serious about building a long-term career as a tattoo artist

About the Apprenticeship

• 9-month structured apprenticeship
• 3 days per week — Monday to Wednesday OR Thursday to Saturday
• Unpaid — apprentices do not receive compensation during the program
• No joining fees or costs to participate
• Hands-on experience in a professional tattoo studio
• Mentorship and structured artistic development
• Strong focus on black & grey realism
• Opportunity to develop your artwork, portfolio and online presence
• Potential pathway into one of our Melbourne studios after successfully completing the program

We don't expect you to be a finished artist when you start. The apprenticeship is designed to help you build your skills progressively, while learning what it takes to work professionally in the tattoo industry.

Before joining the full program, you'll complete a 2-week trial. This gives you the opportunity to experience the studio environment and understand what's involved, while allowing our team to see if you're the right fit.

If you're ready to put in the work, develop your craft and take the first step towards becoming a professional tattoo artist, we'd love to hear from you.

Build your skills. Develop your craft. Create your future in tattooing.

Pay: $1.00 – $5.00 per year
