@UK is seeking to expand internationally, and has a mixture of business and web design/new media intern-ships.
If you are interested in helping set up an @UK venture in your county then you can join @UK for an express tour of the business and understand what is required to set things up in your country.
Your express tour will cover working with our start up division to help create new businesses, followed by work with our large purchasing customers assisting them with providing Savings and Sustainability for their supply chains, along with our large suppliers. You will also work on tenders and bids so that you understand the process along with the key unique selling points of @UK and its cloud technology platform.
Finally you will set up our subsidiary in your country and start marketing it.
We are setting up individual sites for the G20 countries, and have a number of intern-ships available to allow you to use our unique site creation technology and provide a system that is tailored to your country.
