Internships

LIFT partners with employers to develop unique paid internships that have successfully led to permanent employment for a high rate of candidates.  

Typically eight to twelve weeks in length, internships allow you to shape a role according to your business needs, and provide interns with the crucial experience to develop their skills and progress their career.

We are currently able to offer SMEs funding to cover 50% of an intern's wages for up to ten weeks. Contact us to learn more!
