After months of planning, we can finally share our exciting news with you!
Posh Cockney have created a Future Star Programme to help young people gain on the job, real life work experience in PR and Marketing – an opportunity that the pandemic has hindered for many.
This opportunity will allow them to learn first-hand what it takes to work in the busy world of PR and Marketing – particularly as the hospitality sector begins to reopen, whilst being guided and supported by the Posh Cockney team. The Future Star’s will have a tailored, three-month plan allowing them to study, work on real accounts and ask all the questions they need to in a safe space.
“We decided as a team to give back and support people on a three-month crash course style internship. People can come and work with us for us three days a week and deal with real clients whilst getting great training and one to one mentorship from our team. They can meet people from within the lifestyle and hospitality industries and start building connections.”
“This is the first class of the future star programme and we have brought in nine unique and talented young people who we feel could be future stars within the marketing and PR world. We all know that most people learn best by doing, so as great as university is, there is no replacement for on the job learning.” – Liam Norval, Posh Cockney CEO
This is a great opportunity for anyone that wants to better themselves and an incredible steppingstone into future employment. All work is done remotely and around individual schedules.
After the three months, Posh Cockney will be looking to hire some of the interns, whilst helping others to find employment.
“We are really excited about this scheme as there seems to be a huge gap for young people today. It is often impossible to get experience if you don’t already have experience! We are excited to be able to give people opportunities where they can work hard, learn and gain future work with our guidance.” Liam added.
