Hume Brophy is a leading government and strategic communications consultancy. Our 100-strong international team is drawn from media, advertising, in-house, agency, marketing, event management, professional services and industry association backgrounds, offering a blend of skills to meet all communications challenges. Our international presence includes operations in Brussels, Dublin, London, Paris, Frankfurt, New York, Hong Kong and Singapore. Our UK Public & Corporate Affairs team is looking for an intern to support the day to day delivery of client work.

This is an ideal entry-level position for a graduate who is interested in a career in public affairs, and the position offers opportunity for responsibility at a fast-growing firm.

Candidates should have excellent written and verbal communication skills, be highly organised and motivated, work well under pressure, and use their initiative. A strong interest in politics and ability to get involved in team discussions around complex issues is also a key requirement. Main tasks are likely to include conducting policy research, monitoring political activity, writing briefings, organising meetings and providing administrative support.

The internship would initially last for a period of three months, after which there may be the possibility of extension or transition to a permanent contract.
