African journalist sought for six months at Commonwealth Secretariat

The Communications and Public Affairs Division of the Commonwealth Secretariat is seeking a young journalist from a Commonwealth country in Africa to undertake an attachment with the Secretariat in London from January to June 2005. Responsibilities will include the production and dissemination of articles for publications that include the Commonwealth News and Information Service (CNIS) - a weekly e-mail news bulletin - and website.

A monthly stipend of approximately £1,800 per month (before UK taxes and deductions) will be provided to cover all living expenses. A return air ticket will be provided, as well as additional reimbursements for some transportation and short-term accommodation expenses and visa costs. The candidate should be 29 years old or younger, and have at least two years’ experience as a journalist or reporter with an English-language newspaper, news agency or national information agency.

If the successful candidate is in full-time employment, his or her employer will be requested to provide a guarantee that the candidate will be able to return to their job after the attachment is completed. While working at the Secretariat, the intern will have the opportunity to report on Commonwealth events for their news organisation if they wish.

Candidates are requested to send their CVs by e-mail to CNIS editor Ms Geraldine Goh: g.goh@commonwealth.int

Those selected for interview will then be asked to provide samples of their published writing, as well as a short personal statement (of about one page) stating why they would like to be considered for the attachment. Interviews will be conducted by phone. The attachment itself is due to begin on 4 January 2005 and end on 30 June 2005.

Deadline: 31 October 2004
