New Delhi, India APCO Worldwide Full time

Founded in 1984, APCO Worldwide is an award-winning, independently owned global communication and business strategy firm with offices in major cities throughout North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia. APCO combines a global perspective with local expertise to help clients around the world manage challenges, opportunities, perceptions and reputations.

**About APCO in India**

India is playing an increasingly important role in global geopolitics — not only as the world’s largest democracy but also as an emerging economic powerhouse. It is growing and changing at an exponential pace, due to the pro-reform policies of the government and increased investor confidence.

APCO’s India operations began in 2007, and our regional operation is one of the largest and most successful in the firm. Our offerings in India include corporate advisory, government relations, strategic communications, coalition building, crises management and consulting services. Our clients in India include multinational companies, industry associations, non-profit organizations and governments.

We take an integrated approach to consulting, which is based on our strong public affairs heritage, our nuanced understanding of strategic communications and remarkable research, creative and digital capabilities. This is supported by our global perspective and local knowledge, enabling us to address complex issues for our clients and deliver path-breaking campaigns.

Our team in India comprises a significant bench of senior-level staff with deep expertise coming from a range of journalistic, business, management consulting, communications, academic and government backgrounds. The team is based in New Delhi, Mumbai and Bangalore. Alongside trusted affiliates, the team penetrates all important markets within and around the sub-continent.

**JOB DESCRIPTION**

An APCO internship is designed to give interns a valuable educational experience, with exposure to a wide range of client work. While APCO interns are encouraged to develop their interest in public affairs and policy advocacy, they will gain exposure in both practice areas.

The following are specific duties performed on a daily basis:

- Editing of policy reports and other client deliverables.
- Writing analytical pieces on Indian policy, current events and business trends.
- Active participation in brainstorming and strategy sessions
- Support event coordination and logistics.
- Other similar duties as assigned.

**QUALIFICATIONS AND STANDARDS**
- Degree and/or postgraduate degree, preferably in Public policy, Sociology, Public health and related field Communications, Journalism, Economics, Marketing or similar fields
- Strong interest in pursuing a career in Public Policy and strategic communications
- Excellent English writing and editing skills.
- Legal eligibility to do an internship in India.
