Feedback:

We recruited an intern as an Intern Audience Development Assistant. This role consisted of supporting RAMM’s Audience Development Lead and wider team in the planning, delivery and marketing of a stimulating and varied programme of events and activities aimed at a broad range of audiences.

Our intern is doing very well. She’s a great asset to the team and she’s carrying out a range of tasks from basic admin to project work, including marketing for the museum shop and assisting with the production of a children’s book and associated exhibition.

We found this internship to be very valuable and enjoyed the benefits of a very positive two way exchanage; we were able to offer the graduate meaningful employment experience but we also benefited enormously from the new ideas, enthusiam and skills the graduate was able to offer us.
