Sustainability Summer Internship 2024

2 weeks ago

London, United Kingdom LegalAndGeneral Full time

Company Description

The brand with the brolly is choosing today to change tomorrow. Since 1836, we’ve grown to become one of the world's largest asset managers, homebuilders, pension providers and insurance brands.

We’re all here to improve the lives of our customers, build a better society for the long term, and create value for our shareholders - helping to shape a better future for society and the planet.

We need people who share our ambitions, agility and entrepreneurial spirit to help us do it.

**Your role at a glance**

**Are you looking for a summer internship in a business which is making a real difference to society and accelerating the transition to net zero? One that is technically challenging? One that develops commercial acumen alongside your technical skills?**

We’re looking for penultimate year students who want to learn about the role businesses can play in improving society and accelerating the transition to net zero. In this internship, you’ll develop your understanding of how financial services firms interact with the societies and environments where they work, while building your knowledge of carbon reduction, sustainability reporting, social investment and charity partnerships.

**Job Description**:
The Sustainability agenda is increasingly important to financial services companies. At Legal & General, we have a record of investing in communities and environmental solutions to ensure the long-term economic health of society. Our specialist Sustainability teams exist to push and develop this agenda - advising the business, developing new approaches, implementing programmes and measuring and reporting on our successes. We do this across the areas of social investment, environmental management and monitoring corporate governance.

You will be assigned to one of our central Sustainability teams to work with over the course of the 8-week internship. You will also take part in an induction week designed to introduce you to L&G, help prepare you for the remainder of the internship and build an internal network. Over the course of the internship, you will have the chance to interact with different teams, hear from senior speakers and network with your fellow interns. Some of the day-to-day activities could include:
**Group Sustainability Team**
- Support the team’s charity partnerships, by being involved with partnership meetings, project development and other work
- Conduct desk-based research into charities, preparing or reviewing proposals from charities
- Develop communication skills by supporting on the review of our corporate website’s Sustainability pages
- Research and write promotional communications - press releases and internal intranet articles
- Conduct desk-based research and help prepare for our social and environmental rating reports

**Group Environment Team / Group Climate Risk Team**
- Support the team’s management of climate risks across the group, by being involved in collating and benchmarking key climate scenarios.
- Support with environmental reporting e.g. CDP. This includes data gathering and analysis, working with stakeholders from across the business.
- Supporting the environmental team with identifying opportunities to reducing the business’ operational carbon emissions.

**Group Diversity & Inclusion Team**
- Support the work of the Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) team focusing on building practical, useful interventions for leaders, line managers and their people to engage with and learn about DEI
- Help engage our employees globally on key DEI issues that happen in Q3 and Q4 2023.
- Undertake desk-based research into DEI issues, industry and societal trends
- Help engage our most senior leaders in DEI governance forums, management teams and networks

But most importantly you will be learning new skills and gaining knowledge of how our business works

**Qualifications**:
First and foremost, we’re looking for people with an inquisitive mind and a desire to learn. We’re not expecting prior industry experience, but we’ll want to see that you have the tools to develop quickly. These include:

- Currently an undergraduate, in your penultimate or final year of study
- Knowledge of the use of Microsoft Office products including Excel, Word and PowerPoint
- Analytical mind-set and strong problem solving skills
- Great communication skills
- Flexibility and strong teamwork skills
- High levels of interest, dynamism and commitment
- Highly organised with the ability to prioritise effectively

Additional Information

Whatever your role, we reward ability, performance and attitude with a package that looks after all the things that are important to you. Your hard work will be rewarded when you join us.

Our Group teams are at the heart of Legal & General, and we provide support and professional services to the rest of the business, including finance, risk management, human resources, property and facilities services, corporate communications an
