Strategy Team Intern

Internship Summary:

Are you curious about how missions organizations make decisions, solve problems, and turn ambitious goals into real-world results? By interning with the Strategy Team, you will join a collaborative team that takes current best practices in organizational strategy and innovation and applies them to some of Pioneers’ most pressing questions and opportunities. This internship is designed for a student who enjoys learning quickly, asking thoughtful questions, organizing complex information, and helping turn ideas into action. You do not need to arrive with every technical skill already mastered. We are looking for someone who is motivated, adaptable, detail-oriented, and excited to contribute. You will learn about and support projects involving strategic planning, research and analysis, qualitative and quantitative survey analysis, performance measurement, process improvement, and much more. All these tools are shaped and guided by a deep desire to see the gospel shared and churches planted among the unreached. Rather than being assigned routine tasks, interns will have opportunities to contribute to meaningful work products, collaborate with staff and leaders, and build a portfolio of professional experience.

Responsibilities:

• Participate in meetings related to strategic planning.
• Perform in-depth analysis of teams to identify areas of strength and opportunities related to Pioneers’ overall strategy.
• Help consolidate findings into a comprehensive report to be shared with executive leaders.
• Learn more about the intersection of organizational strategy, change management, and global missions.
• Observe organizational leadership development training.

Qualifications:

• Business or Organizational/Non-Profit Leadership major preferred.
• Junior, Senior, or recently graduated.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• You have a Personal Relationship with Christ: Spiritual maturity and desire to deepen your relationship with God.
