Our internships

Internships at the EIF offer a unique opportunity to learn more about what we mean by working for a purpose. Every year we offer internships across the EIF’s different business areas, from strategy to business- and mandate development, equity investments, marketing, human resources, and more.

Under the supervision and guidance of a senior staff member, interns at the EIF are involved in our day-to-day work as part of their project. Most of the interns are based at our headquarters in Luxembourg, and the maximum length of an internship is five months.

Interns receive a monthly allowance (alongside other standard benefits including medical cover and leave entitlement), provided they are not receiving similar compensation from another EU body or institution. We are, however, not offering additional housing or accommodation allowance – but sharing accommodation among interns is a frequent practice.

A great way to connect with others and experience the European perspective together.

Applications are accepted via the EIB Group recruitment portal, subject to relevant openings published there. #JointheEIF
