Internship Opportunity
The Delivery and Project Specialist is an apprentice who supports and learns directly from our founders by shadowing them, assisting with daily tasks, participating with a front row view to executive leadership, assisting with internal operations and client delivery, from sales all the way to celebration.
As a Summer Apprentice, a typical day might include the following:
● Meeting capture and harvest (taking notes & editing them)
● Preparing documents (like meeting agendas, powerpoint slides, and proposals)
● Meeting preparation (booking rooms, making coffee, setting up snacks, welcoming guests)
● Research & Data entry
● Insights synthesis
● Administrative support (writing emails, thank you notes, and ordering supplies)
● Operational processes (creating toolkits, handbooks, and job aids)

● Social media support
This Opportunity Might Be Right For You If…
● You are a Junior or Senior with a strong academic record, and even more importantly, a lot of personal ambition.
● You have a growth mindset. You have a love of learning and learn quickly. This, coupled with personal resilience, means you work hard until you achieve your goals. You don’t give up easily.
● You pay attention to the details. As far as you’re concerned, anything worth doing is worth doing with excellence, and you take pride in small successes - and celebrate tasks marked complete.
● You have a great sense of humor. You like to laugh, tell jokes and be human with your team.
● You are comfortable with uncertainty. When change happens, you ‘roll with it,’ asking good questions to help your team clarify its needs along the way.
● You seek honest feedback. You want access to an executive leader who invests in you personally to help you accelerate professionally.
● You are motivated and driven. You volunteer for new challenges without waiting to be asked. You are going to take ownership of the time you spend with us and truly make a difference.
● You are creative. You have great ideas and aren't afraid to share them.
● You value diversity, equity, and inclusion. You are aware of your own identity and how it relates to others. You care about making people feel included and valued.
● You know when to ask questions. You thrive in a fast-paced environment, and to keep pace, you proactively ask questions of yourself, your team and your supervisor, to ensure your own success and the success of the group.

Diverse Teams Innovate
A certified woman-owned business and a registered B-Corp, Imagine Deliver is actively dedicated to our local community. Imagine Deliver champions the talent of intersectional teams because we know (and the data shows) that diverse groups of people innovate when they work together with intention. We live out that value in our own work by creating a professional environment that welcomes, celebrates and invests in people who bring different perspectives and plural identities to the work. It starts at the top. We’re a woman, Muslim and person of color-owned business, and for years our founders experienced work environments that weren’t designed for people with intersectional identities. We’re changing that with our consulting firm by valuing potential candidates for their lived experiences more than their college degree, by giving staff unlimited paid time off to take care of themselves and observe the holidays they celebrate, and by creating intentional space to unpack - and unlock - our differences together. By leaning into our diverse team's intersections, we unleash original thinking and design elegant solutions and strategies that give our clients a competitive edge.
Imagine Deliver is deeply committed to principles of equity, justice and belonging - and to providing our teams with an affirming work environment free of discrimination. All employment decisions a
