Join us for a three-month paid internship!
The Women’s Budget Group is looking for an intern to join us for three months compensated at the London Living Wage rate. If you are Black, Asian, mixed heritage or from another Ethnic Minority background; interested in the economics of gender equality; and considering working in communications, policy and influencing government policy, this could be for you. We are particularly interested in candidates who might not have the opportunity to take up an unpaid internship.
The opportunity
The Women's Budget Group Is looking for an intern to join our small and friendly communications team for three months from December 2024 or January 2025. You will gain communications experience and have an opportunity to grow our stakeholder networks through desk research and relationship building. You will also have opportunities to support WGB's events and training sessions and contribute to blogs, briefings and other publications.
You will have the opportunity to learn about working in an organisation that produces robust analysis that aims to influence the people making policy. We also work by building the knowledge and confidence of others to talk about feminist economics by offering training and creating accessible resources.
We are looking for someone who is committed to our aims and values, with a reasonable level of competency using Microsoft packages including Word, Excel and Outlook. But we want to provide an opportunity to someone who wouldn't necessarily have the opportunity of internships without compensation, so we don't expect you to have had previous internship or work experience.
This internship is an opportunity for someone who is looking to develop a career in this sector to have an insight into how we work and gain some relevant work experience. We will provide a laptop and other working equipment.
Responsibilities
• Desk research
• Stakeholder coordination
• Updating and maintaining our directories of contacts
• Assisting with the planning and organisation of our events
• Attending and engagement in meetings and events
• Contributing to blogs, briefings and other outputs
Person Specification
• Commitment to and desire to promote gender equality.
• Familiar with basic word processing and spreadsheet packages.
• Good organisation skills.
• Willingness to learn new skills.
• Ability to work from home and two days a week.
