Charity Entrepreneurship (CE), a London-based incubator for high-impact charity start-ups, is seeking an intern to assist with a variety of graphics and communication tasks to support our research and communications team.

ABOUT CHARITY ENTREPRENEURSHIP
Charity Entrepreneurship conducts research to identify the most promising potential charitable interventions, then runs a training program that incubates 5+ evidence-based charities per year. Focus areas have included animal advocacy, health and development policy, mental health, and family planning. See an update about our 2020 charity ideas here.

During the 3-month volunteer internship, you can expect:

  • 0.5-1 hour weekly check up (a conversation with your direct manager about your progress, planning tasks together)
  • written feedback on every task
  • using Asana for task management, Slack for internal communication, Zoom for the weekly calls, Canva for most of the graphic tasks
  • a social call with other interns and staff members (at least once a month)
