- Req#: 2184
Overview
The American Enterprise Institute (AEI) Events team ensures that the more than 1,200 public and private events held annually at AEI’s headquarters are executed flawlessly. AEI scholars and staff turn to the Events team to maximize the quality of all aspects of events, including setup, audience attendance, audiovisual production, catering, registration, metrics, and billing.
The Events intern will assist the team throughout the event planning and execution process, facilitating operations and enhancing efficiencies across tasks. The ideal candidate is organized, detail oriented, and tech savvy; enjoys structured approaches to project management; and has strong interpersonal communication skills. He or she works well in a team environment but can handle assigned tasks independently. Microsoft Office proficiency is a must; knowledge of Salesforce is a plus.
AEI’s summer 2024 internship program will have three start dates: May 14, 21, and 28, 2024. While the AEI internship program and all related programming will take place in person in Washington, DC, this spring, virtual interns may be accepted on a case-by-case basis. Please include your in-person or virtual preference in your cover letter.
