Job Description
Job Category: Intern/Co-op/ Trainee Multifunction/General Job Description: EF Malta - Graduate Leadership Program (12-18 months) Start your career where education meets travel. EF Malta is one of the island's largest and most international language schools. We're proud to be both deeply rooted in Malta and connected to the world. Our students and colleagues come from across the globe - and we're excited to help ambitious graduates build an international career right here in Malta. If we were a hotel, we'd be one of the biggest on the island and one of the largest chains in the world - but we're not a hotel, an iGaming company, a consulting firm or a bank. We're an international education and travel organization, helping people learn languages, experience cultures, and broaden their horizons. Within 12-18 months, you'll gain experience that many graduates spend years acquiring. You'll work across multiple business functions, lead real projects, solve real operational challenges, and build the skills to grow into a long-term career with EF - either in Malta or internationally. Program Overview This is a paid, full-time rotational graduate program designed for recent graduates from any field of study. Our goal is simple: accelerate your career by exposing you to multiple business functions before helping you specialize where you can create the greatest impact. From day one, you'll take ownership of meaningful work - not shadow from the sidelines. You'll work alongside experienced managers, contribute ideas, and help improve the experience of thousands of international students every year. The overall length of the Graduate Leadership Program will be tailored together with you. Depending on your start date, individual development and career goals, as well as business needs, the program will typically last between 12 and 18 months. Typical Rotations Student Services Academic Support Accommodation Office Activities & Events Operations / School Management Support Finance (optional) International exposure (optional) What you'll do Supporting students from arrival to departure Help lead peak-season operations * Coordinate with students, suppliers, and local and international colleagues Analyse student feedback and implement improvements Support cross-functional projects Every project matters because every experience helps you grow. One of the key highlights of the 18-month program is an international learning experience. You'll have the opportunity to either attend a one-week EF language course abroad or spend time at an EF admissions office in another country, gaining valuable insight into different parts of our business while experiencing EF from a new perspective. Why graduates choose EF Broad business exposure International environment (100+ nationalities) Leadership and project management skills Learn from experienced managers Global career opportunities Working hours Full-time, with working days aligned to your department and rotation. As part of a business that hosts international students seven days a week, some rotations may include weekend work or alternative working patterns.

Compensation Competitive starting salary: €20,000-€23,000 gross per year, depending on profile and experience, plus paid annual leave, mentoring and structured development. Who you are A recent graduate from any discipline, fluent in English (Maltese advantageous), proactive, organised, service-minded, adaptable and comfortable working in an international environment. What happens after the program? Successful graduates are considered for permanent opportunities including leadership roles in Malta, specialist functions and international careers across EF. About EF Many people in Malta know EF primarily as a language school - but we're much more than that. Since pioneering the concept of language travel in 1965, we've grown into the world's leading international education company, offering language learning, educational travel and cultural exchange opportunities for learners of all ages. Although we're now a global organization, we've never lost our entrepreneurial spirit.

We're travelers, innovators, entrepreneurs and problem-solvers, united by one mission: Opening the world through education. We work hard, support one another, celebrate success - and never forget to enjoy the journey. EF is proud to be an equal opportunity employer, committed to inclusion, belonging and sustainability.
