If you are seeking exposure within an international affairs environment and would like to gain experience in administration, events and customer service you may be interested in an internship with the Individual Membership Department.

• Is a well organized individual with excellent communications skills (including good telephone manners) and some research skills
• Has excellent administrative and IT skills (Word, Excel, Outlook, Explorer)
• Has good attention to detail and high accuracy.

Details: 

The placement will be for a period of three months. While flexible, we are ideally looking for someone who can commit to four days a week, although this may decrease to three days a week in August - please state your availability in your covering letter. There will be an initial trial period of one week. Short-listed candidates should expect to come for a short interview which will be held at Chatham House between 21-25 May.
