10 Week Sales Internships Champions Life Academy-

Job description

Work hard, play hard

We seek to employ those keen to prove themselves in a competitive environment.

If accepted onto the programme, students live and work in teams as part of one of several regions across the country, gaining the opportunity to meet like-minded people from both the UK and abroad.

For the top interns, there are opportunities to progress into the management team the following year, where they embark on a journey that will take their experience to a level well beyond that of a graduate. We provide promotional opportunities from Salesperson to Team Leader, through to running a division with the responsibility for 20+ people. Full time career opportunities exist within the organisation for those that successfully make it onto our graduate scheme.

Having direct sales experience has been recognised by many employers as perhaps the most desirable work experience to feature on a graduate’s CV. Having either corporate or entrepreneurial career aspirations, Champions alumni have found that learning the ability to communicate with a huge spectrum of people whilst producing competitive sales results over the course of a summer holds considerable weight when applying for many graduate roles, regardless of industry or field. As a result upon our last survey revealed 89% of our alumni have landed their first choice job within a year of graduation.
