SUMMER VOLUNTEERSHIPS (Various Roles)
The Board of Deputies of British Jews exists to promote and defend the religious and civil liberties of British Jewry.
As the community’s democratically elected, cross-communal leadership organisation, the Board connects with Government, media and wider society, providing a unique means through which all British Jews can be heard and represented.
The summer volunteerships are designed to give talented individuals an insight in to the workings of the Board’s dynamic public affairs team. As well as supporting the ongoing work of the team, summer volunteers will be given autonomy over individual projects.
Summer volunteers will have the opportunity to engage across a wide range of issues and disciplines including parliamentary engagement, international affairs, education, religious freedom, interfaith relations, social action and local government outreach. There is a focus on making this opportunity as suited as possible to the future aspirations of the volunteer.
