Oakland, CA Remote Intern
POSTED ON 10/29/2025
AVAILABLE BEFORE 11/27/2025
Interested in joining a growing company where you will work with talented colleagues, enhance a supportive and energetic culture, and be part of the climate solution? At Energy Solutions, we focus on the big impacts. And we believe that market-based programs can be a powerful force to deliver large-scale energy, carbon, and water-use savings. Since 1995, we've harnessed that power to offer proven, performance-based solutions for our utility, government, and institutional customers.

Are you collaborative and creative? Do you love data and desire hands-on experience with Project Management in the climate mitigation industry? The Project Management Office Intern may be the role for you!

In this full-time role (30-40 hrs/week), you will understand the purpose, goals, processes, and metrics of the Project Management Office (PMO), which will grant you insight into project management tools like Monday.com, data reporting, and process improvement. Furthermore, you'll have the opportunity to showcase your skill in analyzing data and drafting visuals for large, broad audiences. Key to this is the chance to collaborate cross-functionally to understand the needs of Department staff. Our Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) will rely on you to gather and sort the most crucial information, then share your findings with them.

With this understanding, you will develop a Performance Metrics Dashboard that tracks PMO Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). This Dashboard will be published on the PMO's SharePoint page and updated quarterly from then on. That is, your work will be on display for the whole team to see and use even after your Internship is over, benefiting the creditability and implementation of the PMO's 2027 plan.

In addition, you will provide templates to create a fully built PMO Resource Library. To do this you will review all templates currently in the PMO Library and compare that list to the recommendations of the Project Management Institute (PMI)-a globally recognized Project Management organization-then identify gaps which you will fill and outdated templates which you will update.

This Experience Will Grant You Insight Into

  • How to improve data analysis and visualization.
  • How to improve presentation skills and best practices.
  • Learning project management fundamentals based on the PMI.
  • An introductory lesson in project management software, such as Monday.com.

You Will Also Gain Or Deepen

  • Critical thinking skills: identifying gaps, inefficiencies, and improvement opportunities.
  • A perspective on how organizations plan and report on deliverables/KPIs.

To enable you for success, we are seeking candidates with these qualifications:

  • Interest and/or experience in Project Management in the climate mitigation industry.
  • Intermediate Excel skills.
  • Ability to work independently and collaborate with teams.
  • Experience gathering, tracking, and sorting data.

Compensation

  • Undergraduate student: $21/hr.
  • Graduate student: $24/hr.

In order to be eligible for this position, you must be:

  • Currently enrolled full- or part-time in an undergraduate program as a second to fourth-year student or enrolled in a graduate program.
    • Please note we are unable to accept applications from first-year undergraduate students or recent graduates who are not enrolled in a program.
  • A US Citizen or permanent resident.
    • Please note we are unable to host international students including those with or without visa sponsorship.
  • Available to meet your weekly hours requirement between May and August 2026.
