The Role:

We are looking for an intern to join our Healthcare & Food Team in Brussels for a 6-month paid internship, starting immediately (March-April 2024).

The Healthcare & Food Practice supports clients in navigating EU legislative and regulatory developments through effective advocacy, public relations, thought leadership and stakeholder outreach. Our clients are drawn from many sectors including pharma, consumer health, and food & beverages.

Over the course of six months, the successful candidate will gain insight into the workings of a global communications agency and develop the skills necessary to pursue a career in consultancy.

What you'll do as you move with us:

Research & monitor policy developments on healthcare, and agri-food issues at EU, national and international levels.

Support client work and the implementation of public affairs and communications strategies, including:

  • Previous public affairs professional experience in an EU institution, regulatory organisation, trade association, advocacy organisation (NGO), company or consultancy is desirable (but not essential).
  • Strong research and analytical skills.
  • Proactive, resourceful and a team player.
  • Critical thinking with a desire to learn in a fast-paced and international environment.
  • Familiarity with digital and social campaigns/tools is an advantage.
