Are you a 3rd or 4th year university student looking to gain meaningful, hands‑on business experience while completing your degree?

We are a large, established and growing national Australian business looking for Business Interns to join our team in Sydney.

This is a paid internship designed for ambitious university students who want to build practical commercial experience before graduating. You'll work alongside experienced professionals, gain exposure to real business projects and develop an understanding of how a large, fast‑paced national organisation operates.

Rather than waiting until graduation to begin building your career, this is an opportunity to learn while you study, strengthen your CV and get ahead of the curve.

The opportunity:

  • Commercial analysis and reporting
  • Business operations and process improvement
  • Preparing reports, presentations and business documentation
  • Conducting research and analysing business information

  • Assisting with project coordination and administration
  • Working with different departments and key stakeholders
  • Supporting process reviews and business improvement initiatives
  • General support across the broader business
About you:
  • Be currently studying a Business, Commerce, Management or related degree and be in your 3rd or 4th year
  • Be available to work at least 3‑4 days per week
  • Have a strong interest in business, commercial operations and management
  • Have strong written communication, research and analytical skills
  • Demonstrate excellent attention to detail
  • Be organised, reliable and comfortable working in a fast‑paced commercial environment
  • Be eager to learn and willing to take ownership of your work

Previous exposure to a corporate, retail or commercial environment will be highly regarded, but is not essential.

Why join us?

This isn't just an opportunity to add an internship to your CV. You'll have the chance to gain practical experience while you are still studying and develop skills that will put you in a stronger position when you graduate.

  • Paid business experience while completing your degree
  • Direct exposure to experienced business professionals
  • Hands‑on experience across commercial operations and business projects
  • Exposure to real projects within a large national business
  • The opportunity to apply what you're learning at university in a commercial environment
  • Valuable experience that can help differentiate you from other graduates
  • The opportunity to build your professional network and business career early

If you're serious about building a career in business and want to learn while you study, we'd like to hear from you.
