Annual Events Intern

Annual Events Intern

The Orlando Economic Partnership (the Partnership) is the Orlando region’s economic and community development organization that is seizing the moment to advance Broad-based Prosperity® by growing the diversity of the economy and driving investment into the region. The Partnership catalyzes the collaborative ethos of the region to fuel regional leadership and improve the region’s competitiveness.

The intern is also expected to contribute to the overall performance of the organization by preparing the team through the completion of tasks and procedures aimed at creating efficiency.  The omission of specific duties does not exclude them if they are similar, related, or logical assignments in support of the mission. 

Interns may occasionally be called upon to provide their unique talents and abilities to solve specific problems or to address specific questions outside their job description. These may be related either to their team’s mission or in support of an organizational goal. As such, they may be asked to participate in a variety of ad-hoc assignments and are expected to be flexible in their work practices and supportive of other team members.
