Dear Students,

 

The British Embassy to the Holy See is seeking an intern for a period of six months starting from April 2024 at their office near the Vatican on Via dei Corridori 48 in Rome.

 

The British Embassy to the Holy See is a small but highly active embassy. They are a friendly team and place a high value on supporting all of our staff, including interns, with their professional development goals. This is a unique opportunity to gain insight into different aspects of an embassy’s work, from events planning and administration to policy research and reporting, as part of a supportive team. They are looking for a professional, motivated and organised individual with a drive to learn, strong attention to detail and a good knowledge of international affairs. The Office serves the UK’s interests by working with the Vatican on some of the major issues the world faces today. These include climate change, human trafficking, violence against women and girls, and freedom of religion and belief.

 

Your work will include daily monitoring and reporting on such issues to the Ambassador and Deputy, as well as contributing to the embassy’s political work by conducting research, for example. You will also assist with other projects, such as support with translations, as required. You will support the Ambassador’s Private Office in delivering a high-quality service through administrative tasks, such as managing the embassy inbox. Social events, big or small, are integral to meeting our diplomatic objectives. As our intern, you will support the Social Secretary with events, from lunches and reception to high-level

events and delegations.

Daily press summaries; occasional policy research; occasional translations/summaries from Italian to English and vice versa; assisting with correspondence and diary management; assisting the Social Secretary with the organisation of embassy events, including lunches/receptions; contribute to high-level events, including logistics and welcoming guests; administration e.g. contacts database management and ad hoc tasks.

IT and analytical skills;

Organisational and interpersonal skills;

Ability to prioritise work;

Drive to learn and develop;

Ability to work as part of a highly dynamic team;

Interest in learning about the UK, the Holy See and the work of an embassy.

 

The internship is not a work contract and as such is not paid. However, the Embassy will pay the intern a monthly allowance of €350 per month. This amount is not subject to tax under current local legislation. The intern would be expected to work

an average of 30 hours per week, Monday to Friday, within the range of 9.00 am – 5pm. Some degree of flexibility is expected, mostly in the case of events. Flexibility is ensured by the embassy to accommodate the intern’s needs in case of university

exams or personal reasons. Other administrative details are set out in the university ‘progetto formativo’, to be signed once appointed to the internship.

 

Interested candidates should send their applications (covering letter + CV in English) to   "> with "> in copy by March 5, 2024.

 

Best regards,
