Vodafone Ireland launches remote Summer Internship Programme

Vodafone Ireland is continuing its commitment to youth employment with the launch of the 2021 Summer Internship Programme. The 3-month paid placement is open to all 1st, 2nd and 3rd-year undergraduate students via a hybrid or remote working basis, providing them with valuable work experiences to help grow their careers.

This year, to ensure safety and inclusivity, the programme will offer interns the choice to work on a hybrid basis at Vodafone’s Mountain View office or work fully remotely. The option of remote working will provide an opportunity for students from all corners of Ireland to take part in the programme and they will be provided with the necessary resources to bridge the digital divide between urban and rural locations.

To date, over 800 young people have experienced one of Vodafone Ireland’s youth programmes. This summer’s internship programme will see a further 30 placements filled with another 40 graduates joining the team through the Vodafone Graduate Programme in September.

As part of the Summer Internship Programme, Vodafone Ireland has exciting and diverse technological and commercial roles available across all 7 business units including HR, Strategy and Finance, Consumer, Commercial Operations and Technology. The programme is designed to allow interns to take responsibility and work on innovative projects within the business, ensuring that they have a collaborative and interactive summer working alongside their peers and leaders across the organisation.

Applications for the 2021 Summer Internship Programme close on 28th February with placements commencing from May 31st.

Julie Mernagh, Head of People Development and Operations said: ‘I am pleased to announce Vodafone is offering flexibility within our 2021 Summer Internship Programme. 30 successful interns will be given the opportunity to lead fulfilling projects and challenging experiences with the choice of working on a hybrid or remote working basis. I am proud Vodafone Ireland can continue to deliver on our commitment to youth through the use of technology while increasing accessibility to a wider talent pool.’’
