Te Reo Reka o Aotearoa is thrilled to announce the return of the Industry Internship Programme for 2024.

There are 24 internships to apply for across a broad range of industry roles, including artist management, PR and publicity, live music events, recording studios – and more. We’re also excited to be able to offer internships in Dunedin, Nelson and Kerikeri for the first time!

This is a huge opportunity to be mentored and work alongside some amazing people in Aotearoa’s music industry. Since the pilot in 2018, the Programme has placed more than 100 emerging industry professionals with music businesses and organisations across Aotearoa, many of whom have gone on to gain employment in the music industry after their internship.

Applications are open now until 5pm, Thursday 30 November – with the exception of three festival internship positions, which closed at 5pm on Monday 20 November.

To apply, please fill out the online application form along with a copy of your CV and a cover letter. You can also contact us with any questions about the Programme at internships@nzmusic.org.nz.
