Summer Intelligence Internships with GCHQ, MI5 or MI6
£4,972 - £6,363 depending on location
Central London or Cheltenham, with accommodation assistance provided for each location
Bringing fresh perspectives to intelligence.
Ever wondered if a career in intelligence could be right for you? Or is it something you’ve never considered, but could get curious about? Our Summer Intelligence Internship is a great opportunity to spend some real time working in the UK’s Intelligence Services. Discover how we keep the UK safe. And find out if you could see yourself building a career with us.
People from an ethnic minority and socially or economically disadvantaged background are currently under-represented in the UK’s Intelligence Services. That’s why we offer this 10- to 11-week internship to university students, specifically from those backgrounds*.
What will I do?
Whichever agency you choose, you won’t be just an intern sitting on the sidelines – you’ll be part of the team. You’ll feed your curiosity, develop new skills and work on real-life projects. It’s an internship unlike any other. Where you’ll see how front-line operations are run, piece together intelligence and create a picture of possible threats. In short, you’ll be a part of our mission from your first day. And the work you do will help us keep the UK safe from harm.
How do I pick which agency to join?
Whatever your skills and interests are, if you’re motivated, ready to learn and discover your potential, we want to hear from you. When it comes to picking the right agency for you, here’s a bit of insight:
At GCHQ, we safeguard the UK’s digital homeland. Which means we deal with a lot of data. So, you’ll need a passion for analysing information and discovering what it can reveal.
At MI5, we protect the UK’s national security. You’ll need to be an enthusiastic and inquisitive problem solver who’s interested in looking after the UK’s security at home.
At MI6, we focus on threats from overseas. So you’ll be interested in different cultures, with a good sense of judgement and communication skills.
Where are the internships?
The internships are based in Cheltenham (GCHQ) and London (MI5 and MI6), but if you don’t live nearby – don’t let that stop you. If you need it, for the duration of the internship we’ll cover the cost of your accommodation.
What happens after the internship finishes?
As the internship ends, you’ll get the chance to apply for a permanent role with your chosen agency. "

So come on folks - hurry, hurry - don’t miss this life-changing opportunity. You could be the next Katharine Gun if you really put your mind to it and truly, deeply care about your country and its American-NATO-Israeli overlords…and have no sense of irony whatsoever.
