About the role
The Healthcare Analytics Solutions team is seeking a dynamic, analytical, and highly motivated Sales and Marketing Intern. In this unique hybrid role—reporting directly into the Sales organization—you will serve as a critical bridge between our commercial outreach and strategic marketing initiatives.
This is not a traditional internship; it is a hands-on, high-impact opportunity to influence how we bring cutting-edge healthcare data solutions to market. You will dive deep into competitive intelligence, shape strategic account planning, and help optimize our revenue-generation processes. Whether you are conducting market research to uncover our "right to win" or shadowing live client pitches, you will gain comprehensive, real-world experience in the end-to-end commercial cycle of a leading healthcare analytics team.
Program Flexibility & Academic Partnership:
We understand that every student’s academic journey is unique, which is why we offer highly flexible internship timelines. This role can be structured as a traditional summer internship or extended into a year-round engagement to help you continuously build valuable, real-world experience. Additionally, if you are seeking academic credit, have a required capstone project, or need specific deliverables to meet graduation requirements, our team is fully committed to partnering with you and your university to structure a program that fulfills those needs.
