An internship at Parachute Music opens up a world full of possibilities. You will be stretched, challenged, motivated, and enlarged as you join the crew in New Zealand’s largest Christian music organisation. You’ll be working alongside a dedicated full-time staff who will mentor and guide you through many a project, and you will also get to experience Parachute Festival from behind the scenes.

A Parachute intern's week is mainly spent in practical work experience at our offices, with the remainder spent in structured bible college lessons. The Internship programme starts early February, finishing mid-February the following year.

"There’s nothing quite like giving a year of your life to work at a place where music is loved, hard work is valued and God is glorified. Being an intern this year has grown my capacity and changed what I think of as work ... I have worked on heaps of projects such as the Parachute newspaper, CD, video, programme and tonnes more ... The people are also really cool to work with, some of the nicest and most professional people I have ever met. So, give it a go and apply for an internship, you won’t regret it!” Stu, 2005 Intern
