We would like to launch a People Events Internship Program in Cyprus, building on the successful experience of our teams in Serbia and Amsterdam.
Cyprus has a high volume of internal events, including 40+ IPC events per year, regular office activities, and larger company events. This creates a steady amount of operational work throughout the year, covering event preparation, coordination, on-site support, and post-event tasks.
The internship would give a junior team member an opportunity to gain hands-on experience in internal event management by working on real projects with the People Events team. The intern would start with operational and recurring tasks and gradually take ownership of selected areas and smaller projects as they gain experience.
For the Cyprus People Events team, the internship would provide additional support with recurring operational tasks and allow experienced team members to spend more time on event development, planning, process improvement, and more complex projects.
The program would also give Polina Zhuravleva an opportunity to further develop her leadership skills through onboarding, mentoring, task delegation, and day-to-day support of the intern.
The goal is to create a mutually beneficial program with three clear outcomes: practical learning and real event experience for the intern, additional operational capacity for the Cyprus People Events team, and mentoring and leadership experience for an existing team member.
