Spend a year working with our Creative Team
We’re looking for a talented and motivated internship team candidate to specialise in studying with our Creative Team. This is an excellent opportunity to gain hands-on experience in video production, music production, social media skills, graphic design, photography and more whilst working alongside industry professionals in a supportive environment.
What You’ll Do:
As a Creative intern, you’ll choose an area to focus on as a main study, and then also study several other skills. Think of this similarly to choosing a university subject to major in, and one to minor in. This role is perfect for individuals who already have skills in one area that they want to focus on developing further, whilst being trained in other complimentary skills. You’ll also have plenty of opportunity to increase your biblical literacy, from our courses at King’s and from other avenues.
What We’re Looking For:
• BTEC or equivalent in one or more of the following subjects: Media, Music, Photography, Music Production
• Desire to learn complimentary skills
• Team playing attitude and willingness to serve in a local church setting

At King’s you’ll enjoy a chance to learn and grow spiritually and creatively while contributing to meaningful projects.
