We are looking for a conscientious and dedicated individual with a passion for linguistics and an eye for detail with, at the very least, a basic grasp of the beautiful game to help us maintain our growing coverage of World football.
The internship is for 3 months and receives a salary of £18,000 per year. The weekly hours will be structured around the footballing calendar therefore the applicant is likely to be working a five day week that incorporates both Saturday and Sunday.
