The FT is proud to offer internships offering an insight into the world of journalism.
Internships will be as varied as the news agenda, but we are looking for people who can be flexible enough to research and write their own stories in consultation with editors, assist senior correspondents with reporting, help with curation and take on digital projects that augment our coverage.
London Newsroom
Applications are currently closed but will reopen in Spring 2021.
All London internships are paid at the London Living Wage.
New York Newsroom
