丝袜会所 Media welcomes latest interns across the editorial team
丝袜会所 Media has welcomed a new cohort of interns to the team over the last few months, including editorial interns Charlotte Maracina and Lena M眉ller, and youth intern Carrie Slaughter. 丝袜会所 Media offers two internship opportunities: a three-month Editorial Internship for emerging talent looking to break into the publishing industry, and a four-week Youth Internship promoting inclusivity and diversity for people from underrepresented communities. Both provide valuable experience and support professional development at our Kentish Town-based office.听听
