Fundraising & Communications Intern

**Fundraising and Communications Internship**

Concordis International is a UK-registered charity delivering peacebuilding programmes in Central African Republic, Cameroon, Chad, Sudan, Abyei, and South Sudan.

Our vision is for communities affected by armed conflict to have the resources they need to manage disputes peacefully and build sustainable futures. Concordis works alongside communities, civil society, and national governments to address the root causes of conflict and support long-term peace and development.

We are seeking a Fundraising & Communications (F&C) Intern to support our peacebuilding mission through strategic communications, donor engagement, and fundraising activities with European supporters. This internship offers a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience in international development communications, while contributing to meaningful peacebuilding work in fragile and conflict-affected contexts.

Concordis Internships are designed as a two-way learning opportunity. We encourage interns to contribute the skills and experience they already have, while also exploring new areas of work and developing additional competencies. Interns are supported to take on responsibilities that align with their interests, learn new tools and approaches, and gain exposure to different aspects of fundraising, communications and peacebuilding.

As a F&C intern, you will work as an assistant to the F&C Manager and contribute to strengthening Concordis’ visibility, relationships, and impact. The work you do will be real, relevant and public facing. Our aim is that you will leave Concordis with enhanced skills, stronger career options, and practical experience that adds clear value to your CV — the more you put in, the more you will get out.
