Employers Work with us Internships Internships The Taylor Bennett Foundation Summer Stars internship programme offers internships with agencies and in-house communications teams for students, graduates and school leavers (18+) from a Black, Asian and minority ethnic background. The Summer Stars programme starts with a three day PR & Communications bootcamp. The bootcamp is comprised of masterclasses which provide our candidates with the opportunity to build their knowledge of the industry before they begin their internships. Internships are for a minimum of 4 weeks and can last up to 12 months long. The programme has gone from strength to strength with 58 internships taking place in 2021. Taylor Bennett Foundation advocates London Living Wage to be paid to all Summer Stars interns. Applications are now open for our Summer Stars internship programme 2022.

The deadline for applying is Friday 13th May 2022. “During 2021 Four decided to take three 6 month paid interns via the Taylor Bennett Summer Stars programme. All three were impressive during the interview and they joined us in separate teams. One was assigned to the corporate and finance team and two were interning across our lifestyle team which incorporates the culture, travel and brand practices. All became fully engrossed in their internship, attending meetings and events, and it was an unanimous decision to offer them full time permanent roles before their internship ended. They were offered and accepted a permanent role and are now on Four’s graduate training scheme.”Marcia La-Rose, Head of HR, Four Communications Employers supporting the Summer Stars programme in 2021 67Health, Barclays, The Blakeney Group, BT Group, Cancer Research UK, Chivas Brothers, Cicero Consulting Limited, Citizen Relations, Four Communications Group Limited, Frame Group, Full Fat Agency, Grayling Communications Ltd, Greenbrook PR, Hanover Communications, Hawthorn Advisors Ltd, Houston PR, Hume Brophy Communications, Hunt & Gather, Imperial College London, In House Communications Limited, Jargon PR,ENGINE MHP, Kekst CNC, Launch, Lloyds Banking Group plc, M&G plc, Nepean, Ofwat, Pagefield, Paternoster Communications, Pinch Point Communications, PLMR, Portland Communications, PUBLIC, Ready 10, Red Consultancy, Simmons and Schmid, SSE plc, Sutton, Teamspirit, Third City , Tonic PR & Communications, Tyto PR If you have any questions, please email [email protected]
