About our internships
Anybody with a passion for conservation and sustainability can apply. It helps if you have good writing and computer skills. You should be self-motivated to allow you to complete the online courses that are included in every internship. There are no specific entry requirements for the internship.
The monthly fee is for your personal mentoring and training. It includes a weekly one to one training session and unlimited access to your marketing coach for the duration of the internship. You will also receive help with your job search and a reference letter based on your performance.
For international internships in Asia, there will be additional monthly charges for food and accommodation.
Please send us your up-to-date CV and a letter explaining why you want to do the internship. Make sure that you mention WHICH internship you are applying for and any other relevant information. Then email these documents to barbara@biodiversitybusiness.com
The internship places are limited, so we need to select the most suitable candidates. This will include an email reply with any questions we have about your application. Based upon your reply, you can be shortlisted for an interview. If successful, you also need to provide a reference letter.
During your induction, your coach will agree a week-by-week schedule with you. This will include online learning for your new skills. Moreover, your own interests will be matched with one of our conservation projects or sustainable causes. Then, you will put your new skills into practice by working for your chosen cause. This could be a wildlife project or a related subject such as marine protection or responsible business. Every week you will have one personal training session with your coach every to track your progress.
No problem. If you decide you want to stop, at any time during your internship, then you will receive a refund for any of the remaining months. Likewise, if you want to continue for longer, then you just pay for each extra month. We are pleased to say that most of our interns are satisfied and extend their internship or even come back for a second time. Read their reviews here
