Role Overview

We’re looking for an ambitious, organised and proactive Event Operations & Content Intern to join both the Event Ops and Content teams. This role sits at the heart of one of our most complex and exhilarating periods of the year — supporting the build-up to Founders Forum Global and helping make the event a world-class experience for speakers and guests alike.

This internship offers real responsibility, a chance to learn from event-creators and storytelling professionals, and direct exposure to the engine-room of global event delivery and speaker content production.

What You’ll Do

You’ll be the glue between logistics and content at our biggest event of the year — working hands-on with both teams to ensure everything runs smoothly, on time and with our signature attention to detail.

Content Responsibilities

• Liaise with speakers ahead of the event: sending speaking briefs, gathering bios and coordinating pre-event intro calls.
• Support on-the-day operations, including helping speakers and guests get where they need to be and ensuring sessions run on time.
• Prepare session assets including headshot slides and content collateral for live presentations.
• Work closely with the Content team to support seamless content delivery and engagement throughout the event.

Event Operations Responsibilities

• Research and source high end luxury gift bag items
• Liaise with suppliers and partners to coordinate logistics, deliveries and timing for gift bag items.
• Help manage and track inventory, delivery schedules and on-site setup of the gift bags.
  

This role is for you if:

• You are able to think proactively - you make things happen and can come to the table with ideas
• You are able to stay organised to timelines and project manage multiple deliverables 
• You have entrepreneurial drive - this means you are self driven, naturally curious and excited about working with startups and scaleups
• You are a people person and enjoy building relationships across different type of stakeholders and you enjoy bringing these people together to create impactful events or connections
• You thrive working in teams and are passionate about our mission at Founders Forum Group

Requirements

• Applicants must be available to intern with us starting between April 20th - April 27th and working with us until Friday 12th June.

• Keen interest in events, VC, accelerators, community
• Strong organisational, administrative and project management skills
• Strong relationship builder and communicator
• Right to work in the UK 

This role requires working 4 days a week in the office. This role will also require some travel around the UK.

Benefits

We offer a range of flexible, discretionary benefits to our team. These currently include:

• London living wage with a 35 hour work week
• 9:30 - 17:30 and include a one hour break
• Lunch 1x/week, office snacks, and regular team drinks
• Access to the Founders Forum Group network of businesses and wider tech ecosystem

We currently have a hybrid working model with 4 days spent in the office and 1 day with the option to work remotely/from home.
