Are you a student or recent graduate excited to break into public policy work? Or perhaps you’re working in another field and are just curious about entrepreneurship policy?

  • Research and writing: collecting and analysing data, and helping to draft policy reports and blogs;

  • Events: supporting the planning and smooth running of roundtables, receptions, report launches and other events;

  • Stakeholder engagement: networking with founders, investors and policymakers crucial to our work;

  • Team support: administrative tasks that keep our small team moving;

  • Policy input: contributing to the work of the APPG for Entrepreneurship, Young Entrepreneurs Forum or the Female Founders Forum.

What you’ll gain

  • A tailored project plan aligned with your experience, interests and goals;

  • Regular feedback to help you sharpen your skills;

  • Flexibility to fit around study, other responsibilities or a return to work;

  • A reference on completion and consideration for a paid internship;

  • Reimbursement of reasonable travel and lunch expenses.
