Chicago, IL Internship Expires May 14, 2021

VSA Partners is a design-driven branding and marketing company.

VSA was founded as a design firm more than 30 years ago with the belief that design is not only a craft but a tool for achieving business objectives. As design thinkers, we approach business challenges holistically and aim to break down silos between branding, digital, marketing and advertising.

A little bit about the VSA Summer AtHometernship Program: If you’re looking for another bullet point on your resume, look elsewhere. At VSA, like much of what we do, we take our internship program seriously. This means our interns work on "real work," with real meetings, deadlines, and business challenges from our brands and clients. This is the education you won’t get in a classroom. Consider it career practice, with the freedom to learn, make mistakes, refine, question and tag along. You’ll work with an individual manager and a group of mentors in an outstanding cross-disciplinary environment focused on brand, communications, marketing, and digital. As part of the larger program, you’ll take part in intern meetings, team outings, activities, and initiatives (can you say networking?). And yes, it’s paid, with an hourly rate, for 40 hours/week, on-site. It starts June 7th. Bet you can’t wait for summer.

VSA’s Strategy Practice acts as the leading edge of our effort to invent and reinvent brands for the modern age. By adding more robust, thorough strategic offerings to our portfolio without compromising our ability to translate thinking into design-we build a combination few can match. The Brand Strategy Intern is responsible for applying analytics to support the development and optimization of marketing channels.

VSA Partners is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive, equitable environment for all employees. All employment decisions are made based on qualifications, merit, and business need.

  • Work independently and collaboratively with the strategy team to understand a client’s business in the context of their sector, customer dynamics, and market dynamics.

  • Participate in qualitative and quantitative research programs, conducting analysis to uncover insights for brand development.

  • Support the creation of compelling presentations that reinforce VSA as a strategic voice for clients.

  • Stay updated with projects and deadlines for all projects.

  • Understand the fields and professional areas in which VSA works.

  • Additional responsibilities as assigned.

  • Junior or Senior level in an accredited University studying business, marketing, or related field. Pursuing a Master’s Degree in a related field or MBA is a plus.
