Wine Intelligence is recruiting for a new intern. Our interns are deployed on a wide variety of tasks, ranging from research project work through to marketing activities and internal systems projects. We typically expect our interns to stay around 12 weeks, though this is flexible and dependent on the circumstances. Interns can be students, including those who need work placement experience as part of an academic course. They can also be people already in work, or looking for work, who are looking to understand the wine industry better from a business point of view. Some of our previous interns have gone on to become employees of Wine Intelligence, while others have returned to their studies or have gone on to work elsewhere. While the internship is not a paid position, the company typically makes a contribution towards an individual’s living expenses should the circumstances demand it.

Who we are looking for?

• a strong academic record in the social sciences and/or business studies
• a keen interest in the wine industry from a business point of view
• a high level of fluency in both spoken and written English, and in at least one of the following additional languages: French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Mandarin, Spanish.

Other skills that are beneficial but not essential to the role include:

• experience in marketing, market research or the wine industry
• experience in database and analytical software such as MySQL, SPSS, advanced Microsoft Excel and/or Microsoft Sharepoint.

What you can expect from us?

Wine Intelligence offers a unique opportunity to gain direct experience in the global wine business. In the past 12 months the company has worked in 18 markets, serving clients in virtually every major wine producing area of the world. Interns will have the opportunity to work on a range of in-house and client projects, which will help develop research skills, project management skills, strategic thinking, data analysis, marketing, and the ability to work within high performance teams operating to tight deadlines.

Please send applications, in the form of a CV and covering letter, to Stefanie@wineintelligence.com
