Job Details
Apollo Strategic Communications – a fast-growing international communications agency – is seeking an enthusiastic intern with a strong interest in international affairs and public policy to support our expanding portfolio of high-profile clients.
This is a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience working with an elite roster that includes international foundations, think tanks, and NGOs.
Paid Internship – International Affairs (Remote, preferably London-based)
The ideal candidate will have:
* Excellent writing skills and the drive to take initiative and responsibility
* A keen interest in international affairs and public policy, ideally with existing knowledge of the Global South
* Strong interpersonal skills, with the ability to work well in a team, earn client trust, and pitch effectively to journalists
* A desire to learn how impactful media campaigns are developed, and a willingness to work hard – including occasional out-of-hours work when required
* Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite
* Language skills such as Spanish, French, German, and Italian would be a bonus.
The successful candidate will have the flexibility to work remotely, and would preferably be London-based as occasional in-person attendance may be required for events, meetings, or team sessions in central London.
This role would suit a master's student or recent graduate with a background in politics or international relations. Knowledge of the Global South is a strong plus. The internship will last three months, with the potential to transition into a longer-term position for the right candidate.
