Job Description

The International Enforcement Law Reporter, a monthly subscription print and online journal covering the latest developments in the field of international enforcement law, is seeking a part-time intern to join its editorial staff for Spring 2026. The internship will involve roughly 10-15 hours of work per week and can be conducted remotely. It is unpaid but may be undertaken for academic credit if your university allows.

Responsibilities:

The intern will primarily assist with the preparation of articles for the IELR and/or posts on the IELR’s companion blog, IELRBlog.com/. Every month, the intern will work with the IELR’s assistant editor to author 2-3 articles for the IELR journal or posts for the blog. The articles and/or posts will cover topics related to international enforcement law, such as money laundering, transnational corruption, transnational organized crime, and international human rights law.

The intern may also assist in producing marketing content for the IELR’s LinkedIn page and blog, as needed. Our posts report on recent developments in the news, but they also include a significant analysis component. This is an excellent opportunity for undergraduates interested in international law, national security, criminal justice, and journalism.

Qualifications:

· Enrolled as a student in an undergraduate or graduate institution;

· Outstanding writing, critical thinking, and research skills;

· Strong academic background, especially in political science, international relations, and law-related courses;

· Interest in international enforcement law, human rights, or related fields, such as national security;

Additional Information:

If you would like to be considered for this position, please submit a cover letter, resume, unofficial academic transcript, and short writing sample (up to 1000 words) to the IELR’s assistant editor, Chloe Fontenelle, at ielr@bcrlaw.com

In the past, on a couple of occasions, the position has resulted in full-time employment with the law firm involved with the publication.
