Ledbury Poetry Festival is one of the biggest dedicated poetry festivals in the world, running over two weekends in July. With more than 7,000 tickets being sold each year, and some of poetry's biggest names hosting readings, discussions and gigs it takes quite a bit of organisation.
This is why they are hiring interns to help out in the running of the festival - assisting in marketing, ticket sales, managing New Writers sessions and many things in between. You can download a full job description from their website here.
The role is unpaid, but travel expenses, accommodation and food and drink at the festival is provided.
Salary: expenses
Contract length: June 30 - July 9
