Edelman is a voice synonymous with trust, reimagining a future where the currency of communication is action. Our culture thrives on three promises: boldness is possibility, empathy is progress, and curiosity is momentum.
At Edelman, we understand diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging (DEIB) transform our colleagues, our company, our clients, and our communities. We are in relentless pursuit of an equitable and inspiring workplace that is respectful of all, reflects and represents the world in which we live, and fosters trust, collaboration and belonging.
We are looking for a Research & Strategy Intern to join our Strategy team at Edelman. This position will support our Strategy and other business teams on various projects which require industry/market research, audience insights, competitive analysis, and strategic planning.
Solving problems through a marketing communications lens is an interdisciplinary challenge. Research is the foundation of this process so we’re hoping our Research & Strategy Intern has the curiosity and courage to master new research skills, study new industries/categories and take on new challenges. But don’t worry - you are not expected to know everything. Adequate support and mentorship will be provided along the way.
