The Role
I really enjoyed my internship with The Body Shop in Business Development. The team was very supportive and I was given a wide variety of projects not just basic admin!
My Team was always very encouraging and I was given a good insight into topline projects and strategies.
Brilliant Manager, really pushed and got the best out of me.
I was given a really good level, I had my own projects and contacts and my team let me get on with projects. I was even allowed to support in a presentation to the CEO.
The Company
My team had a great atmosphere, good balance of work and social.
Company Parties/Events
Staff Sales/Staff Shop
The Culture
Yes, there is about 10 other interns all over the Business. Lunch and afterwork drinks most weeks.
Expensive but well worth it!
Great central location.
Socially yes.
