About the Business of Film, Media & Journalism Intern Role :
As a business development intern, you will work one-on-one with the founder of TASTE, helping build up the business end of an internationally award-winning documentary series and food media startup.

TASTE is a startup, so there are no set rules nor procedures. We don't need a coffee-fetcher.

If you're the type of person who is self-directed (a.k.a. likes to make their own recipes for getting big projects done), then you should apply.
