About the internship

Through an internship at FCG Sweden you will gain insights into how international development works in practice. You will have a chance to work on a broad range of subjects related to your assigned business area (see the documents below). Through the internship, you can expect to familiarize yourself with these subjects and their specific contexts of implementation. You will see how a private sector actor works in international development, gain insights into many of the leading bilateral and multilateral organisations and be given plenty of responsibility and opportunities to learn and develop your skills and yourself.

The intern will be primarily allocated to one of our business areas but might have the chance to work with other business areas during the internship. An important part of the work includes carrying out regular market analysis and research and assist us in identifying and preparing project opportunities and tenders. In addition, the intern will also support the development of the projects and the project management team in implementing activities and approaches that work towards sustainable international development.

As an intern you will receive comprehensive induction trainings about the private sector in international development, project management, budgeting skills and the technical areas of our different departments. You will also have a chance to learn negotiation skills and develop international communication skills.

Please note that the internship is unpaid, so please make sure that you have the means to support yourself financially during the period of the internship.

The internship will take place at FCG Sweden’s office at Celsiusgatan 10, Stockholm.
