Our Graduate Internship Programme provides opportunities for recent graduates to participate in all aspects of the Commonwealth Foundation and gain experience, strengthen their knowledge and develop their skills. 

We maintain a team of interns who are recruited together for a six-month period, which may be extended to a maximum of 12 months depending on performance and the needs of the Foundation. Our interns are fully integrated into the Foundation’s staff structure, and we pay close attention to their professional development. 

The successful candidates will be allocated to one of the following areas of our work: 

• Commonwealth Civil Society (home of our major grants work) 

• Advocacy & Creative Programme (home of our cultural initiatives including adda and the Commonwealth Short Story Prize, outreach, advocacy, the Critical Conversations events series, and delivery of the Commonwealth People’s Forum)  

• Communications (working across the Foundation as part of the Knowledge, Learning & Communications team) 

Responsibilities are tailored to the needs of each team and the intern’s own areas of skill and interest. For more information on our programmes and our work, see our current Strategic Plan, available on our website. 

Although interns will be based in one of the above programmes, we are a small team, and so interns may have the opportunity to experience other areas of the Foundation’s work and to also collaborate with their fellow interns on specific projects. 

Our responsibility to Interns 

We prioritise the professional development of our interns, encouraging participation in both internal and external learning opportunities and experience across programme areas to broaden knowledge and skills.
