Job description

This is a 13 week internship

If you are passionate about the future of our planet and want to use your skills to make a difference to the future of our world, this Communications & Campaigns Intern role with WWF Scotland is for you. This is a unique opportunity for someone interested in campaigning or community outreach to gain valuable work experience as well as insight into how a major international NGO working at the forefront of global conservation operates.

WWF’s annual Earth Hour event focuses the world’s attention on our planet and how we need to bring our world back to life. It’s a unique annual event, engaging hundreds of millions of people, all across the world, in a huge symbolic show of support. In 2023, it will take place at 8.30pm on Saturday 25 March.

This year, we’ll be focusing on Earth Hour as part of our Save Our Wild Isles campaign, created to inspire people to help bring our world back to life. Which is where we want you to get involved.

As Communications & Campaigns Intern you will work on this exciting, high-profile global initiative. You will support the team in the planning and delivery of communications and campaigns strategies. This will include social media, digital, community engagement and partnerships. You will work on day-to-day engagement with key target audiences, such as diverse groups, organisations and businesses using tools like the phone, zoom and email. You will also get involved in researching new audiences, copywriting and creating content for emails, website, and social media. You will get to collaborate with colleagues across the UK and internationally on this landmark event as well as help with the admin and project management across the teams too.

For this role you must have an interest in or experience of campaigning or community outreach, particularly covering climate, nature, and environmental issues. Used to creating content for social media you will be happy writing for diverse audiences across digital channels. In addition to working occasional evenings and weekends (for which Time Off in Lieu will be granted) you need to be available to work on Saturday 25 March 2023. You will also possess an eye for detail and good organisational, communication and interpersonal skills. Some knowledge of Scotland and its institutions, political structures, and environment would be desirable but not essential.

As an intern with WWF Scotland, we will help you develop your skills in project management, partnerships, content planning and development, and community engagement, as well as offer the chance to gain experience working with a leading global NGO.

If you are super excited and passionate about gaining valuable work experience while saving our planet, we would love to hear from you.

Every role at WWF is open to applications from all backgrounds. We believe in the potential of everyone regardless of; sex, race, religion or belief, ethnic origin, different physical ability, family structure, socioeconomics, age, nationality or citizenship, marital, domestic or civil partnership, sexual orientation, gender identity, or any other aspect that makes you, well you. Here at WWF, we’re committed to conscious inclusion that helps cultivate an ethos of belonging, connection, and shared purpose. We believe that the more diverse we are the better we become; this brings us together and empowers us to develop, engage and inspire; and critically to help build a future where people can live in harmony with nature. We operate with a strong human rights and social justice ethos and actively work to embody our values of: courage, integrity, respect and collaboration in the way we work and how we treat our people. Our policies and benefits reflect the importance of people being able to have a good work-life balance and creating an environment that allows people to be their ‘authentic self’ at work.

Our world needs you like never before. We are the first generation to know we are destroying the world and we could be the last that can do anything about it. We are looking for people who are passionate about making it politically, socially and economically unacceptable to destroy our planet’s natural resources. We need you to join us in the fight for our world.
