CCLA is happy to announce a new opportunity to join our team on an exciting twelve-month communications internship, sponsored by the Royal Bank of Canada Foundation.
The CCLA RBC Fellow will have the opportunity to help design and implement CCLA’s media and communications strategy, including content creation for our website and social media networks, growing CCLA’s media presence and managing media relationships, helping to organize advocacy events and online campaigns… and much more! The CCLA RBC Fellowship is based out of our Toronto office, and will be paid full-time work for twelve months, beginning in July or August 2013. We want this to be a valuable internship to build upon your skills and experience and at the same time contribute meaningfully to CCLA’s work.
