BMW UK and British Vogue have partnered to launch the first BMW UK/ British Vogue Scholarship Programme. This unique opportunity will consist of a four-month paid scholarship placement, with the first placement beginning February 2021, across both British Vogue’s offices in central London and BMW UK’s offices in London and Farnborough.

To encourage applications from a broad range of 18-24 year old candidates, with diverse skills, these iconic brands have partnered with a number of organisations, charities and academies to promote the scholarship including; Access Aspiration, Brixton Finishing School, Lecture in Progress, The Dots and BYP Network.

Applications are now open and the three successful candidates will undertake the four-month paid placement with the British Vogue Publishing and BMW UK Marketing departments. British Vogue and BMW will coach and develop the successful candidate by providing mentors, projects to collaboratively work on, training to develop their true potential and introductions to key departments across both businesses:

  • PLACEMENT WITH BMW UK: Working within the Marketing Department at BMW UK, the successful candidate will gain experience across the Experiential, Partnerships and Social Media teams. Candidates can expect to gain hands-on experience working with the communications and experiential agencies, on-site at flagship events as well as in the Farnborough HQ.
  • PLACEMENT WITH BRITISH VOGUE: During the scholarship within the British Vogue publishing team, the candidate will gain experience working in the most coveted advertising department. Candidates can expect to develop a strong understanding of the world of magazine publishing and exposure to events through this hands-on experience working with a dynamic print and digital sales team.

“We’re proud to launch this brand-new Scholarship Programme in partnership with British Vogue at a time when young people are facing unprecedented challenges in terms of training and employment,” said Michelle Roberts, Marketing Director at BMW UK. “BMW has a long history of fostering emerging talent and driving inclusivity across all aspects of our business – from marketing disciplines to automotive design, bringing young people into fulfilling engineering and technology careers including our game changing “Girls Go Technical” work experience programme. Our ambition is to attract a much broader range of people to the automotive industry and this scholarship is another step on our journey to delivering this. This scheme offers three young people with ambition, a creative eye and keen attention to detail the unique opportunity to kick-start their career with two of the UK’s market-leading brands.”

Vanessa Kingori, Publishing Director of British Vogue says, “I am especially excited to bring this project to life with BMW. Our aim is to initiate new paths for potential future leaders. The world of work is changing, it is vital that we go beyond traditional routes to develop fresh opportunities and encourage a range of perspectives into business and creative industries. The ideal applicants will be interested in fields aligned to Marketing, Communications, Advertising and Media. We are looking for candidates who will work hard and harness this unique opportunity to transform their futures and become potential forces for change."   

The BMW UK/ British Vogue Scholarship Programme is part of British Vogue’s ‘Forces For Change’ initiative which focuses on celebrating the people, organisations and ideas deemed to be forces of positive change. It aims to reach new audiences and celebrate the positive transformation as a result of important conversations around diversity and inclusivity.

The Scholarship Programme offers the successful candidate an opportunity to immerse themselves in all things British Vogue and BMW. The deadline for the scholarship application is Friday 11th December. For more information visit: https://condenastuk.avature.net/careers/JobDetail/British-Vogue-X-BMW-UK-Scholarship-Programme/2333

CO2 emission information.

The values for fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and energy consumption shown were determined in a standardised test cycle according to the European Regulation (EC) 715/2007 in the version currently applicable. The figures refer to a vehicle with basic configuration in Germany and the range shown considers transmission (automatic or manual) and the different wheels and tyres available on the selected model and may vary during the configuration.

The values of the vehicles labelled with (*), are already based on the test cycle according to the new WLTP regulation and are translated back into NEDC-equivalent values in order to allow a comparison between vehicles. More information on the transition from NEDC to WLTP test procedures can be found here.

These figures are intended for comparison purposes and may not be representative of what a user achieves under usual driving conditions. For plug-in hybrid vehicles and battery electric vehicles the figures have been obtained using a combination of battery power and petrol fuel after the battery had been fully charged. Plug-in hybrid vehicles and battery electric vehicles require mains electricity for charging. The CO2 emissions labels are determined according to Directive 1999/94/EC and the Passenger Car (Fuel consumption and CO2 Emissions Information) Regulations 2001, as amended. They are based on the fuel consumption, CO2 values and energy consumptions according to the NEDC cycle.

A guide on fuel economy and CO2 emissions which contains data for all new passenger car models is available at any point of sale free of charge. For further information you can also visit this link.
