At Spotlight, it’s our mission to craft and sustain a successful analyst relations (AR) program for our clients –– and the Client Team plays a key role in championing the logistics necessary to meet our clients’ goals. Client Teams engage in the coordination, management, and reporting of the key activities for a client, working closely together to collaborate on the client’s program strategy. As a Client Team intern, you will be working closely with one of Spotlight’s Client Teams to support them through various projects and tasks.

To be successful as an intern, you should be willing to help with any tasks assigned by a supervisor. Your work will be focused in a specific department where you will get a chance to immerse yourself in a specialty and gain transferable skills. You will receive a basic understanding of analyst relations and be involved in a few cross-team collaboration projects for an even broader view of the impact on Spotlight’s work. 

Following the completion of the program and evaluated performance, interns may have the opportunity to continue part-time or full-time employment.
