Careers & Internships

GCIRD welcomes applicants who are curious, disciplined, and prepared to engage critically with complex issues. Because the organisation is digital-first, collaborative work can be carried out from any location.

Opportunities exist for research interns, junior fellows, and visiting fellows from academia, international organisations, journalism, and the development community. Calls for applications are published on this page.

GCIRD’s approach to internships emphasises substantive involvement rather than administrative tasks. Interns and junior fellows engage directly with ongoing research, contributing analysis, drafting commentary, and participating in seminars and working groups.
