Role Title: HR and Alumni Project Intern
Organisation: The Kids Research Institute Australia
Internship Period: Summer (November - December)
Location: Nedlands
The intern will mostly work on the supervisory team records to update and maintain the information stored within. This will firstly involve contacting HDR students (higher degree by research) to create a picture of who at The Kids is currently supervising a student so they can be invited to training sessions. Secondly, the intern will do additional research on where students go once they leave the institute, mostly via online research (LinkedIn) but also through direct contact. The intern will also complete other additional tasks related to this and other projects within the team. They will be included in relevant meetings and asked for their input in other, unrelated projects, offering the intern a more diverse professional experience at the Institute.
The Kids Research Institute Australia is based within the Perth Children’s Hospital, and is one of the largest, and most successful medical research institutes in Australia, comprising a dedicated and diverse team of around 1,000 staff, students and honoraries.
