Voluntary Interns

Employers' Forum on Disability (EFD) is the world's leading employers' organisation focused on disability as it affects business. Our mission is to enable companies to become disability confident by making it easier to recruit and retain disabled employees and to serve disabled customers.

We are looking for hard-working interns to join our team in central London and help us with our mission while developing your own skills and experience of life in a not-for-profit organisation that works closely with big business and the public sector.  Although our members employ around 5 million people, our team is small and our office is a friendly place to work.

An internship is an excellent way to get a head start in the transition from a student environment to a working environment. It should add value to your CV and give you an invaluable insight into how businesses operate in the real world.

The nature of this opportunity you do not need to have the business experience we might require if we were employing you.  Candidates need to be:

• Willing to devote 3-5 days per week for the next 3 to 6 months;
• Capable of solving real problems;
• Enthusiastic to learn new ideas;
• IT literate;
• Versatile;
• Keen to make an impact in the real world.

This opportunity allows structured work experience in an organisation and the experience should compliment any qualifications you have when looking for future employment.

More information about our work can be found on our website http://www.efd.org.uk

What else you need to know

• Interns are typically students, graduates or post-graduates, who work as an integral part of the EFD team.
• These voluntary positions usually last between 3-6 months and can be moulded to suit individual's skills, interests and available time.
• All these roles are primarily based in London and are unpaid, although reasonable expenses are covered.

What you need to do

• Apply by sending your CV, covering letter and completed Internship details form stating what areas of EFD you are intertested in working in (which can be found on our website) to Barnaby Powell, Employers' Forum on Disability, Nutmeg House, 60 Gainsford Street, London SE1 2NY or by email to barnaby.powell@efd.org.uk
