Internship Accenture Innovation Awards – The Central Team - Program Management
What is the Accenture Innovation Awards?
The Accenture Innovation Awards is a year-round program with multiple events that aims to connect all innovators and to drive innovation together. This year-round program will ultimately culminate in the Innovation Summit on November 2nd, 2018. The Innovation Awards team consists of a Central Team and the Theme Interns. The Central Team interns are responsible for program management, event management, marketing and communication, client value and partnerships. The Theme Interns are responsible for defining theme strategy and executing the theme specific tasks, such as theme innovation scouting and guiding the theme judging process. Together you will work towards one goal: the biggest innovation program of the Netherlands. Within the whole Innovation Awards team, you are given the freedom to pursue diverse projects.
Why would you want to start your AIA18 journey as a Program Management intern within the Central Team?
As a Program Management intern within the Central Team you will shape the year-round program of the Accenture Innovation Awards. You will work directly with the Management Team to define the strategy and make sure this strategy is being executed by the whole Innovation Awards team. You will keep track of the high-level targets and goals, and make sure that everyone is on the same page.
It is important that you can keep an overview of what is happening within both the Central Team and the Theme Teams. If someone has a question they don't know, it is very likely they will ask you for the answer! You will be the link between these various people.
Furthermore, you will get the opportunity to shape your internship by your own interests, personal goals and strengths.
