About Us At Hounslow
We’d love you to join us at the London Borough of Hounslow! Our people are deeply committed to providing excellent services to our residents, doing all we can to make lives as good as they can be.
We are an outstanding council, serving an outstanding borough. With brilliant, visionary leadership, a dynamic Cabinet and a can-do culture, we’ve built strong partnerships which have transformed how we serve one of London’s most diverse boroughs. Hounslow is the world in one place and full of potential. We are stepping up for our residents like never before.
About Our Commitment To Diversity And Inclusion
We live by five core values: Lead with Heart, Do New, Pass on the Power, Harness the Mix and Be a Rock. All our work has equality, diversity and inclusion at its very heart, best articulated in “Harness the Mix”. It's about breaking down barriers between our parts and people and unlocking the problem-solving power of our amazing mix of minds. We serve a diverse community, we have a diverse workforce and we are committed to being an inclusive employer.
We work hard to create representation across our workforce and leadership community, we have thriving employee network groups and our learning and development programmes help us lead, model and breathe ways of working that eliminate inequality, inequity, injustice and bias.
As part of this and under our commitments as a Disability Confident Employer, we make reasonable adjustments to accommodate our candidates. There’s space for you to tell us what you need within our application form.

About The Role
This is an exciting opportunity to be part of our Boston Manor House team as an Intern. In this role, you’ll be primarily supporting visitor and operations management, and will have the opportunity to develop skills in different aspects of managing a heritage site. You will be part of the team welcoming the public and gaining opportunities to learn about the day-to-day running of the House. You will work across all teams on site, discovering every element of the House and being supported by a mentor from within the team.
We are recruiting three interns, two on a full-time basis and one on part-time. The two full-time roles will each undertake 360 hours work in total (36 hours per week for 10 weeks). The part-time role will undertake 180 hours work in total (18 hours per week for 10 weeks). The way in which the successful candidates’ working week is arranged is open to discussion with the team. We are also open to remote working when relevant or possible.
