Intern - Financial Services

Interns join one of our two offices in Singapore for a period of 10-12 weeks. They work in teams and directly with our clients. We welcome applicants from all backgrounds interested to work on financial services policy.

**WHAT WE OFFER**

When you join Flint Global as an Intern, you are joining a strategic public policy consultancy that will challenge you and invest in your development. Internships at Flint provide practical experience for individuals with an interest and/or background in **policy, politics, and regulation**. They are short-term supervised placements, usually structured around a set of tasks and/or a project which has a set
timescale.

In this role, you will work with the best teams to help support clients who face the challenges of regulatory and policy change at national, regional, and global levels. These are businesses which require advice at the point where government and business meet - in private, public, and social sectors - we offer an authoritative perspective on both.

We help our clients anticipate, interpret and respond to political and policy developments. We advise on how they can shape the business environment and work constructively with policymakers to achieve their goals, in a context where governments are becoming more interventionist and, in an Asia-Pacific region where geopolitical tensions are increasing the risks to business.

**WHAT YOU WILL DO**

You will be working closely with senior colleagues in Singapore, where you will support client engagements by providing analysis and briefing, contributing to policy development and project management. Interns receive frequent coaching and mentoring from colleagues on their teams. This support includes input from your colleagues to help guide your career, helping you to develop your skills and build your network. The Singapore offices is currently small in size, giving you the opportunity to gain direct exposure to senior staff and to be involved in growing the business in a meaningful way.

**ABOUT YOU**

To be eligible for our internship, ideally you will be in your penultimate or final year at university/business school. We are looking for individuals with the ability to build meaningful relationships, are motivated, forward thinking and ambitious, and you bring integrity, and a real client focus to your work. You should also enjoy working in a team environment.

We are expecting you to work for **1**0-12 weeks between May and September**. We do not offer visa sponsorships for this position, so you need to be authorised to work in Singapore.

You will bring the following range of skills:

- Excellent analytical
research and problem-solving skills.
- Outstanding written communication skills
and the ability to draft clear documents in a business context.
- Outstanding oral communication skills.
- Experience or interest in policy issues related to the financial services sector.
- Good organisational skills including the capacity to prioritise, plan and schedule complex tasks proactively, and be comfortable working under pressure and to tight deadlines.
- Strong interpersonal skills - a flexible approach and the ability to work well across teams, both with internal colleagues and external clients.
- Fluency in English is required. Aptitude in other regional languages is desirable but not required (in particular, Mandarin, Korean, Japanese or Bahasa).
