Quality work experience is hard to find. Most work experience means ‘observing’ and ‘shadowing’.
At Intrainship, we think you deserve better.  
Work experience should be about taking the first steps in your career, helping you decide what to do and then giving yourself an advantage.
We place you in an Intrainship suited to your age, experience, and interests. Quality work experience for a UK company.

“With Intrainship's help, we were able to deliver realistic work experiences to eight students from School 21 . Seeing them grow in confidence and present their ideas was incredibly rewarding for our team. This is such an effective way for businesses to have a genuine impact on the skills and prospects of young people.”
