Job description

Learn How Culture Gets Built.

Culture doesn’t move on its own. Someone sees the opportunity first. Someone structures the deal. Someone builds the partnership, protects the relationship, and turns an idea into value - for a client, for a brand, for an audience, for the business. UTA’s Internship Program gives students an inside look at how a global talent and entertainment company operates, while providing hands-on experience across the teams and functions that bring opportunities to life.

This is an opportunity to learn by doing.

• Build Professional Skills: Strengthen your communication, organization, judgment, adaptability, and ability to manage responsibilities in a fast-paced environment.
• Develop a Network: Build lasting relationships with peers and mentors. You’ll work alongside industry leaders and other interns who share your passion, all while building a network that can serve as a foundation for your future career.
