We receive many requests from people wishing to participate in our work experience programme, and we have a track record of former participants finding full-time work in publishing and the Film/TV industries, both in the UK and overseas. We have a very limited number of places available.

Due to the type of work required of our interns, participants who are not native English speakers must have TOEFL level English or equivalent.

We are unable to help with finding accommodation in London or other part-time work whilst you are with us.

Please note: The film and television department is currently not able to offer work experience.

Book Department

We are currently offering only one book work experience position at a time for a student on a course requiring work experience.

We are unable to take on students who aren't at least in their second year of an undergraduate course (or equivalent). You must be required by your course to take up a work experience placement. We can only offer places to individuals who have a keen interest in a career in publishing or book agenting.

We offer work experience placements for a minimum of three weeks.

Please send an email with your CV, covering letter and the dates you are available to Tom Witcomb

'I feel that my script reading abilities have improved enormously during my stay at Blake Friedmann.'

'Far from playing an observational role I was delighted not only to be thrown into the work but also to have the work that I accomplished taken seriously.'

'It was really refreshing to see a company that encourages work experience and placement types to muck in.'
