We have roles available in our Development and Programmes teams.

This internship is ideal for applicants who would like to broaden their experiences and develop a diverse range of skills.

The Sutton Trust is the UK’s leading foundation dedicated to improving social mobility. Founded by Sir Peter Lampl in 1997, the Trust delivers programmes to 8,000 young people each year across the country, rigorous research into the issues of low social mobility and educational disadvantage, and policy advocacy to affect systemic change. The Trust gives opportunities to young people from low and moderate-income backgrounds to improve their chances of accessing top universities and the professions. It seeks to ensure young people reach their potential, regardless of their background, school or where they live.

About The Role

The Sutton Trust Internship Scheme 2022-23 will run from Monday 19th September 2022 to Friday 15 th September 2023. We have roles available in our Development and Programmes teams; please note that each role has a separate job description and application form. Interns will provide integral support to one of the Trust’s main teams and will have opportunities to learn about and support other teams as required, and to learn how they fit together within the charity. This internship is ideal for applicants who would like to broaden their experiences and develop a diverse range of skills.

Interns will be supported by their team’s Line Manager and by a central staff member. There will be regular meetings to monitor progress and provide mentoring and assistance where necessary. They will also be matched with a ‘buddy’, usually from another team, who will help interns integrate into the workplace. We will also arrange a follow up phone call 3 months after the internship has ended so we can continue to provide support if needed
