The CEB’s Internship Programme is an opportunity for students and recent graduates to get a general overview of the work of a multilateral development institution and gain valuable work experience in an international environment.
The Programme has one intake per year, with internships normally starting in February and lasting between 3 and 6 months, but may be extended for up to a total of 12 months.
Internships are available in various areas across our business units and can include but are not limited to: economics, banking and finance, law, international relations, environmental policy and climate action, human resources, communications, information technology. Openings for each intake depend solely on the business needs.
All our internships are based in Paris, France.
A contribution towards living expenses will be granted to interns by the CEB. As of 2025, this amount is set at €1,800 per month.
Who can apply?
To be eligible, you will either need to be enrolled at an institute of higher education (ideally at a Master’s level or equivalent), or be a graduate with your highest degree obtained within the last 24 months and be a national of our CEB member countries.
