The broad remit of the FSA means that we can offer diverse and unique internship roles that are not available in other organisations. As part of an internship programme, you’ll be assigned to one business project for 10 weeks. Being part of real business tasks, you’ll gain valuable industry experience, and build the foundations for your future career.
Our summer internship is intended to give you real responsibility from day one, and offer you the opportunity to see our organisation’s work first hand. This will help you to decide whether our Graduate Development Programme is right for you.
Summer intern training
We offer an extensive training programme and excellent opportunities for your development. When you join, you will be assigned a buddy. A graduate from a previous intake, they will answer any questions you may have, introduce you to the teams and demonstrate procedures – ensuring you get the most out of your time with us and easing your integration into the FSA.
Benefitting from on-the-job training by your line manager and team, you will also have the opportunity to take further internal courses in technical and soft skills by booking on our self service portal, Chrysalis.
Your line manager is responsible for your day-to-day development. He or she will set your objectives at the start of your internship, in line with your specific role and development needs. You will then have a formal mid-term appraisal in week five, and a formal final appraisal in week ten. These, combined with your ability to meet key performance indicators will contribute towards you receiving a graduate offer.
