Homes Testing Internship 2021
We’re the UK’s leading premium publisher, and the people behind iconic media brands such as Cosmopolitan, Esquire, Elle, Harper’s Bazaar and Country Living. We’ve created a working environment that encourages everyone to pull together. We never stop looking for brave new ideas. We’ll always try to develop and improve, we trust each other to do our best, and we have fun as we build on our heritage to make history.
Out Homes Testing Team is based in Feltham and test everything from carpet cleaners to flower deliveries in order to help our readers make the best choice when buying new products.
About the role
Our Homes Testing Team test hundreds of products a year and work to very tight deadlines. You will support them throughout this process which includes, but is not limited to, conducting product research, contacting PRs, organising deliveries, testing products and maintaining our results database.
Our day to day work varies depending on which product we are testing and so there will be some days of supporting with hands on testing and some days of admin based work.
We do not require you to have previous product testing experience but you will need to be organised in your work approach, be able to multitask, have strong interpersonal skills and be able to react quickly to change.
