The Internship Experience 

 

At ZURU, we aim to offer an internship experience that’s different from any other. One that reflects who we are as a business.  We have cultivated a high-performing culture that encourages excellence. Our team works towards ambitious goals, learning, performing, and improving together, all while having fun. We empower talented individuals to do their best work every day. We treat all of our interns as if they are permanent team members (and we hope that some of you one day will be!). This means you’ll be working on meaningful projects from week one all while learning strategies and skills that drive the success of some of the world’s biggest Toy & FMCG brands from industry leaders. 

 

You will also: 

- Be set up to win with a two-day induction to get you up to speed on everything ZURU 

- Learn how our people continue to shift the needle through regular learning sessions with key business leaders 

- Experience ZURU’s playful side by dabbling in content creation (#dayinthelife) and attending social events 

- And so much more!

About You   

 

We don’t ask to see your grades, and we take on students from a range of different backgrounds and degrees.  What we care about is sharing our internship experience with students who have a natural inclination to go above and beyond, who demonstrate grit and dedication, and most importantly, who radiate positivity and humility. 

 

ZURU is a special place to work, and we live by our unique set of values, the ZURU DNA (you can find out more about our ZURU DNA on our careers page). 

 

If you’re excited by the opportunity to get stuck in to meaningful work and exciting projects and you have a mindset around continuous improvement and challenging the status quo then we want to hear from you!
