About the Role

We are looking for an organized, analytical, and highly motivated Project Management Intern to support important initiatives across TBD Investors’ portfolio companies.  Our companies are opening locations, entering markets, integrating acquisitions, launching services, building teams, implementing technology, and developing systems that can support continued growth.  You may work primarily with one portfolio company or support projects involving several businesses. Each intern will be assigned defined workstreams, measurable objectives, and a primary manager.  This is not an observational internship. You will be expected to bring structure to open-ended problems, coordinate stakeholders, follow projects through to completion, and produce work that companies can actually use.

What You’ll Do

Depending on portfolio needs and your experience, responsibilities may include:

• Developing project plans, timelines, milestones, and deliverables
• Coordinating projects involving operating leaders, clinicians, employees, vendors, and outside partners
• Preparing agendas, presentations, meeting materials, notes, and follow-up items
• Tracking responsibilities and ensuring that projects remain on schedule
• Conducting research and translating findings into clear recommendations
• Building dashboards and reporting tools to monitor progress
• Identifying risks, unresolved questions, and operational bottlenecks
• Documenting processes and creating repeatable operating playbooks
• Supporting strategic planning and monthly operating reviews
• Helping portfolio companies manage special projects that cross multiple departments
• Communicating progress clearly to company leadership and other stakeholders

Projects could include:

• Coordinating the opening of a new pediatric therapy, behavioral-health, or medical location
• Managing a workstream related to the integration of a newly acquired business
• Building a project-management system for a rapidly growing multi-location company
• Coordinating a technology or reporting-system implementation
• Developing a launch plan for a new service, market, or customer initiative
• Supporting a company-wide recruiting, marketing, or operational-improvement project
• Helping an essential-services company document and standardize its operating processes
• Coordinating an initiative involving several TBD Investors portfolio companies

• Project or program management
• Business or entrepreneurship
• Operations
• Engineering
• Healthcare administration
• Public health
• Economics

Prior project-management or industry experience is helpful but not required. We care more about initiative, organization, communication, judgment, and the ability to take ownership.

Strong candidates will be:

• Highly organized and attentive to detail
• Comfortable managing multiple priorities and deadlines
• Strong analytical thinkers and problem solvers
• Clear writers and communicators
• Able to coordinate people with different priorities and perspectives
• Comfortable bringing structure to ambiguous projects
• Proactive about identifying problems and proposing solutions
• Comfortable working independently in a remote environment
• Dependable and willing to follow projects through to completion

What You’ll Gain

• Ownership of meaningful projects with measurable business ou9tcomes
• Experience working with rapidly growing companies across several industries
• Exposure to multi-location expansion, acquisition integration, strategic planning, and operating improvement
• Direct interaction with CEOs and other portfolio-company leaders
• Experience turning complex, open-ended problems into structured workplans
• A portfolio-quality project or operating deliverable
