• Assist in release planning and go-live coordination, including checklists and communication updates.
• Contribute to client-facing updates, presentations, and summary reports.

• Interest in technology, digital products, and learning modern project management practices.
• Proficiency in English (knowledge of Swedish is a plus).
• Ability to work collaboratively in a cross-cultural, fast-paced environment.

You Will Gain

• Hybrid flexibility for a healthy balance between remote and office work.
• Clear growth pathways, skill-building sessions, and a supportive team culture.
• Internship certificate and strong potential for a full-time offer upon completion.
