WHO WE ARE WHAT WE DO
Egg Strategy is a global strategy and innovation consultancy that provides consumer insight, strategy, and innovation services to clients across the world. We work with some of the biggest consumer packaged goods (CPG), health, and lifestyle companies to transform their big questions into meaningful insights, and insights into actionable opportunities.
We leverage our expertise in strategy and market research, including both quantitative and qualitative primary research methodologies, to offer the following types of services to our clients:
- Consumer insights: create empathy with the consumer, inspire great marketing communications, and strengthen consumer-focused brand-building efforts
- Strategy: uncover and shape growth opportunities, position and reposition brands and products, and define roadmaps to future growth
- Innovation: identify, evaluate, and inspire new product or service opportunities
WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR
We’re looking for college grads who are curious, driven, and excited to learn about consumer insights, growth, strategy, and innovation consulting! PLEASE NOTE THAT WE ARE ONLY CONSIDERING CANDIDATES WHO WILL HAVE GRADUATED AND ARE NOT PLANNING TO RETURN TO SCHOOL IN THE FALL.
While not guaranteed, successful interns will be considered for a full-time position as an Associate Strategist upon completion of the internship.
Our internship program is designed to help you learn quantitative research skills, methods for discovering patterns in consumer behavior, and ultimately, ways to translate data into actionable implications for the client’s business. Although it’s helpful to know a thing or two about research methods, marketing, or branding, we’re mostly looking for people who are hungry to learn. We encourage you to apply if you’re interested, even if you don’t feel like you satisfy the full job description.
The ideal Egg Strategy internship candidate would be described as follows:
- Graduate of a 4-year undergraduate program or a graduate program, ideally in social sciences, anthropology or similar program that included statistics.
- Demonstrated appetite and aptitude for learning, both inside and outside the classroom.
- Curiosity about the world and people-you may have been told as a kid that you ask too many questions.
- Interest in consumer behavior, market research, brand strategy, growth strategy, or innovation.
- Demonstrated capacity for critical thinking and analysis
- Collaborative team-player
- Proficient in Microsoft PowerPoint and Excel
- Understanding of statistical principles and SPSS experience is a plus!
Egg Strategy is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to fostering a diverse environment with an inclusive workplace culture that values continuous improvement and accountability, and seek applicants who are eager to contribute to our culture with their own unique perspectives.
INTERNSHIP TASKS, DUTIES, RESPONSIBILITIES
Our internship program is designed to help you learn, grow, and contribute to our work together. Day to day, you will work alongside our full-time staff on client engagements within our three verticals--Health, Consumer Packaged Goods and Lifestyle. You’ll be part of work at all levels, from the very bottom to the very top of our organization, and we will call upon your personal strengths, experiences, and passions to contribute to our ever-growing company.
As a Quantitative intern, you will spend most of your time supporting numerical research methodologies and deliverables, including working with Microsoft Excel, SAS and SPSS.
