Are you looking for a summer internship in Marketing and Communications that sharpens your commercial acumen and hones your technical skills? If you answered “yes,” then our Summer Internship Programme is perfect for you!

You’ll join one of L&G’s divisions for an 8-week placement running from July to August. This programme is a fantastic route to our Graduate Programme, though completing the summer programme doesn’t guarantee a graduate role.

  • Support the execution of external communications strategies by drafting press releases and reviewing measurement.

  • Assist with an events programme that includes in-person, virtual, and hybrid events, such as press events and industry conferences.
  • Work with our internal communications team to support proactive and two-way communications across the business through various channels including email, video, townhalls and other events
  • Provide administrative support work closely throughout our Marketing and Communications teams to ensure all activities are aligned and maximised across multiple channels, including proactive and reactive social media channels.

  • Straightforward - doing what we say and saying what we mean
  • Collaborative - working together constructively
  • Purposeful – working with pace and energy

  • Penultimate year of university (i.e. graduating in 2026)
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills with strong attention to detail
  • Analytical mind-set
  • Highly organised with the ability to prioritise effectively; you are someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment
  • Flexible and a team-player
  • Curiosity and an eagerness to learn
  • Competent IT skills, including Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint
  • Passion for the news and the written word, with a creative approach to delivering concise and responsive communications in line with the company’s strategy.
