Discovery World Intern

Here is an internship opportunity passed on from Justin....

Discovery World is looking for a Development Intern. The intern will start off helping us to re-organize donor files and re-engineer the Development business process. Once that ball gets rolling, the intern will help us create a communication tool. As you know, grants often come with restrictions and reporting requirements. The tool will help the Development department communicate these requirements to internal stakeholders.

I'm really excited about this role because it's a big project with some really great learning opportunities. The intern will get an inside look at what goes in Development. The intern will learn core consulting skills, including information interviewing and process mapping. The intern will interface with people higher up in the organization, potentially including our Executive Director. The intern will work with our Education and Finance departments, in addition to Development. And the tool he or she will be creating and managing was requested by our Executive Director, so it's a higher profile project.

We're looking start someone as soon as we find the right person. The internship will run through the end of the spring semester, 15-20 hours a week. Unfortunately, it's not paid. But again, great learning experience. Anyone interested should be a college junior, senior or grad student. They can contact me at volunteer@discoveryworld.org or (414) 765-1978.

Thank you so much for passing this information along to your friends and the department.

Thanks!
