The Opportunity

Are you a high-achiever looking to learn how a national leader in summer STEM camps actually functions behind the scenes? This isn't a "get the coffee" internship. At Lavner Education, we build world-class enrichment programs, and our Business Operations team is the engine that makes it happen.

As a Business Operations & Strategy Intern, you will work directly with our Chief Strategy Officer and other key leadership. You will be tasked with high-visibility projects that bridge the gap between corporate communications, financial integrity, digital presence, and operational excellence. If you are analytical, tech-savvy, and ready to move at the speed of a fast-growing company, we want to meet you!

What You’ll Be Doing

• Strategic Communications & Mass Outreach: Execute our mass communication strategy. You will be responsible for deploying high-stakes email and text campaigns to thousands of families nationwide, ensuring our brand voice is consistent, professional, and impactful across all touch points.
• Procurement & Logistics: Assist in the sourcing and acquisition of technology and supplies for our camp locations across the country.
• Financial Operations & Capital Stewardship: Gain a 360-degree view of corporate spending. Assist with expenditure tracking and credit card reconciliation, ensuring capital is deployed efficiently across our national footprint. This isn't just accounting; it’s oversight of our fiscal health and resource allocation.
• Digital Infrastructure & Other Projects: Support the CSO on "special ops" projects, everything from website updates to optimization initiatives and other research projects.
• Business Optimization & Process Engineering: Act as an internal "efficiency consultant." You will identify operational friction and design smarter workflows to automate manual tasks, helping our National Headquarters scale without losing speed.

Who You Are

• A Business or Corporate Communications Major or Recent Grad: You’ve finished the core coursework and are ready to apply financial, marketing, and management theories to a national operation.
• Tech‑Savvy: You’re proficient with Google Sheets (bonus points if you know your way around a database) and can learn new software in your sleep.
• A Strong Communicator: You can write a professional email that is clear, concise, and persuasive.
• Detail‑Obsessed: You’re the person who catches the typo in the third paragraph and the calculation error in cell B14.

The Details

• Where: This role is based at our National Headquarters in Plymouth Meeting, PA.
• When: May - August, 2026.
• Perks: Direct mentorship from C‑suite leadership, a high‑energy office culture, a resume‑building experience, and the chance to make a tangible impact on the future of tech education.
