What’s special about this team:

The Internal Communications team plays a key role in helping employees stay informed, connected and engaged with the business. Interns gain hands‑on experience across many aspects of communications, including content creation, employee messaging, digital signage, campaign support, editorial planning and communications strategy. This is a highly visible team where your work will be seen by employees across campus and around the organization.

You'll have the opportunity to collaborate with communicators, business partners and leaders while developing a broad communications skill set.

How would an intern contribute to the team’s success:

The intern will partner with the U.S. and Global Internal Communications teams to support the development of a more structured communications planning process that advances enterprise priorities by improving how employees understand company strategy, organizational changes and key business initiatives. The intern will help organize editorial calendars, research best practices, analyze employee feedback and engagement data, document processes and create planning tools that improve how we prioritize and coordinate communications across channels.

In addition to this project, the intern will gain hands‑on experience supporting day‑to‑day internal communications by creating evergreen digital signage templates, developing intranet articles, drafting employee communications and contributing to other initiatives that enhance the employee experience.
