Athletics is looking for insightful brand & experience strategists, with a desire to work on brand and digitally-led creative projects. As an intern, you will contribute to the discovery process on an exciting range of client projects — shaping workshops, interviews, and opportunities — and support the design and delivery of creative work, ensuring it stays true to both the client’s vision & audience needs.
Applicants are required to be able to legally work in the US, have a passion for your craft, and a strong desire to learn and apply your skills. It’s recommended that applicants have at least two years of relevant education or equivalent experience.
Overview
Athletics paid internships are 3 months in duration. Athletics works in a hybrid remote/in-person model from our studio in Brooklyn, NY. We encourage our interns to do the same, but are open to fully remote internships if the applicant can work New York hours.
Therefore we ask for a full-time, 3-month commitment as we feel this leads to the most successful experience for our interns. Our goal is to help interns learn tangible, real-world strategy skills, while also contributing to project teams in meaningful ways.
All interns receive mentorship from our seasoned strategy team throughout the duration of the internship, as well as the opportunity for a 1:1 portfolio review before the end of the internship. We integrate our interns directly into our strategy team from day one.
Although we accept applications on a rolling basis, we generally hire interns for the summer, fall, and winter/spring.. We are always on the lookout for talented strategists so please do not hesitate to reach out.
