Administrative Assistant Internship

This internship is only available to university students studying French. The minimum required level of both French and English is B2 / C1.

The internship involves assisting in the management of client files concerning their participation in language programmes and homestays. The primary language used in the business is French, but you will be expected to write professional emails and make phone calls to our clients in both French and English. Jennifer Laur, company CEO, will help you to develop your ability to use French in a business environment.

You will also have the opportunity to learn how to carry out market research, and you will write posts for the company's social media platforms. In addition, we will introduce you to the language of HTML and website design.

Furthermore, we are able to offer you free French lessons, taught by one of our professional French teachers to help you progress with your French.

You can start anytime for a maximum duration of 2 months. We take on interns throughout the academic year and during university holidays. This vacancy is open for the whole of the academic year 2019/2020, and would be ideal for Year Abroad students looking for an Erasmus-funded work placement or traineeship. If you are required by your university to find a work placement of longer than 2 months, we may be able to find you another placement near the area of Vazerac to reach this duration.

We provide three-course meals on working days to all of our staff and interns, and offer cultural and sporting activities in the evenings and at week-ends. Horse riders welcome! We also take our interns on trips to the South West regions of France when we do our yearly visit to our host families. We can help you find a French host family to stay with, or you can stay in our fully-equipped on-site gîte. You will have plenty of opportunities to immerse yourself in the French culture and language.

Our headquarters are located in Vazerac, a rural area with no public transport in Occitanie, South West France. Interns are welcome to bring a car. The medieval village of Vazerac is located within an hour's drive of Toulouse, and approximately 30 minutes from Montauban.

There is no financial compensation for this internship, but you may be eligible for funding under the Erasmus+ programme.
