ShareAthena is a creative place for leaders, risk-takers, creative thinkers and boundary-pushers. We partner with organizations looking to transform their presence, reputation, and performance. For over ten years, we’ve delivered business insights, marketing strategies, and brand activations for leading organizations in industries ranging from telecommunications to major league sports. Our people make Athena, Athena. They’re what help set us apart from traditional ad agencies and consultancies. As a Philadelphia Inquirer Top Workplace for three years running, we take pride in fostering a work environment where passion meets excellence. Our people are solutions-oriented individuals who eagerly roll up their sleeves to make work that works while sharing a couple of laughs along the way. All Athena internships are hosted in-person at our Philadelphia headquarters, 20-30 hours a week. About the Role As a Marketing and Communications Intern, you’ll collaborate with experienced marketers and communication specialists to support the planning, execution, and delivery of both client-facing and internal campaigns. You’ll gain exposure to brand messaging, content creation, and audience engagement, while developing foundational skills in strategic communication, digital marketing, and storytelling. As part of the Athena team, you’ll contribute to impactful initiatives across a range of industries, with opportunities to take ownership of key marketing projects and benefit from hands-on training and professional development. About the Program The Athena internship program immerses interns in a collaborative, cross-functional environment where they work closely with teams across Creative, Marketing, Events, Operations, and Data Analytics, gaining exposure to how departments align to bring projects to life. Our Capstone Project allows interns to collaborate and contribute to real-world initiatives by presenting their proposal to internal stakeholders. Interns are mentored through weekly managerial check-ins and executive support. Athena fosters a culture of support, curiosity, connection, and inclusivity, which allows interns to shine. Our internship program begins in June 2026 and is a part-time opportunity to join the organization for the summer. Requirements What you'll be responsible for: Support client initiatives through research, content development, and presentation design. Assist in communication logistics for clientele & coordinate with key stakeholders. Create and manage social media content and internal engagement to promote Athena’s brand, such as event coverage. Conduct research, build Excel reports, and create slide decks to support cross-functional marketing efforts. Provide general project support across marketing, branding, and event initiatives. The skills and experience you should have: You're a creative thinker: not afraid to think outside the box, driven by curiosity, proposing ideas and solutions, reaching above and beyond to ensure the success of a project. You’re a people person: whether it’s brainstorming with coworkers or working with other departments, you’re a clear, open communicator, and you’re not afraid to ask for help. You’re tech savvy: you’re in tune with design trends, and you can learn new computer programs and adapt them into your workflow quickly. You’ve got it together: a fan of calendar invites, close attention to detail, tight time management, and organization skills. It's a plus if you have: Prior experience working directly with clients or supporting brand activations. Leadership experience through extracurricular activities, volunteer work, or team-based activities. Exposure to marketing, brand strategy, or social media planning. Familiarity with business analytics and KPI reporting. Benefits Paid Experience: Interns are compensated at $20/hour, with biweekly pay throughout the nine-week program. Flexible Scheduling: Interns are expected to work 20–30 hours per week, ideally on a consistent schedule. Hours are coordinated with managers to allow flexibility within the weekly limit. In-Person Engagement: This is an on-site internship based in Philadelphia, designed to provide immersive, real-world experience in a collaborative office environment. Professional Exposure: Interns gain hands-on experience with client-facing work, learning key skills in professionalism, communication, and public relations. Capstone Project: All interns participate in a Capstone Project, where they collaborate across departments to research and pitch a new client opportunity to Athena’s senior leadership and CEO.
