INVI is looking for a communications intern for fall 2026
Would you like to help tackle society's wicked ?
We are looking for interns with deep professional skills and broad social interest who want to help develop new visions and tools for society's wicked problems.
We have always been good at solving social problems in Denmark. That's why we are in the super league of prosperity. But as many have noticed, we no longer achieve the same results. We debate, we work, we stress, we set up commissions and expert groups. But often the big changes in society fail to materialize.
This is not because we have become worse at solving problems. It's because the problems we face are cross-border and intractable. Just think of climate change, unhappiness or the lack of hands in the labor market. They are wicked problems, and they require new approaches.
At the think tank INVI, we develop visions and tools to give everyone working on wicked problems more strings to pull. Together with practitioners and experts, we help rethink how we design and roll out policy. We test methods and models and are not bound by party politics, bureaucratic battles or commercial interests.
We have sky-high ambitions and lots of exciting projects in the pipeline. As an intern, you will have ample opportunity to put your professional skills to use, regardless of whether you are studying political science, design, anthropology, business economics, communication, or something else entirely.
About the position:
At the INVI Think Tank, we work at the intersection of theory and practice. We are developing Denmark's first model for societal complexity and we collaborate with practitioners on the frontline.
Therefore, there are many opportunities to participate in exciting assignments that provide experience and networks that you can use in your future career.
LinkedIn responsibilities, Podcast production and article writing
As an intern, you will be responsible for INVI's LinkedIn profile, so we are looking for an intern who is enthusiastic about crafting captivating, sharp, and innovative LinkedIn posts. But that won't be your only task. Depending on where you want to develop, you will also help organize podcasts, write articles for our newsletter, run cool events, and communicate with INVI's members, our Policy Insights Panel, and our Policy Youth Panel.
We therefore place particular emphasis on your ability to communicate effectively – both in writing and, preferably, in audio – and your willingness to tackle complex topics in clear, accessible language and write posts that inspire INVI's followers and spread the word about INVI, so that we can reach even more practitioners who are struggling to tackle wicked facing our society. This requires a good understanding of the target audience and a lot of courage to throw yourself into innovative forms of communication – and we will all help each other with this!
We have many exciting initiatives underway at INVI, which means that your day-to-day work will involve a wide variety of tasks. One day, you might be picking up the phone to call a minister or an editor-in-chief. The next day, you might be writing an article for our newsletter about a new, exciting method that could inspire our newsletter readers to approach their wicked in a new way. And who knows, maybe the method and the brilliant researcher you spoke to for the article will also be interviewed by Sigge Winther and featured in the KOMPAS podcast?
We expect you to be enrolled in a relevant higher education program.
You need to thrive in an environment where there are many unknowns. That's why independence and creative thinking are important, and being structured and detail-oriented is an advantage.
What you get out of an internship at INVI

We offer an unpredictable semester, and we guarantee that it will not be boring.
