Summer Internship at Eco-Events Venue

Green & Away is a tented sustainable non-profit events venue based in Worcestershire, available to hire for conferences, courses, celebrations and eco-camping. Established in 1990, we are also an educational charity and aim to inspire and encourage environmental and social change through experiential learning and sustainable living in practice. Green & Away is a charity looking for passionate and hardworking individuals to join our summer internship programme. Our programme is varied and adapted to suit you and your interests.

As an intern, you will be a valuable member of the crew throughout the summer and will be responsible for managing teams of volunteers. We have groups of volunteers staying for different durations, and we need our interns to be the backbone of the crew, providing ongoing knowledge of the site and undertaking longer term projects. On-the-job training and an induction will be provided in the first week, with continual guidance from a dedicated member of the trustee board. You will have the opportunity to measure your progress through regular check-ins with the interns managers. Interns will join the volunteers during the setting up and taking down of the site.

At Green & Away, we tailor our internships to your skills, areas of interest and what you’d like to develop. You could run one long project, or a portfolio of smaller projects, all with a focus on sustainability, ecotourism and outdoor living.
