PROGRAM OVERVIEW

We are seeking enthusiastic self-starters to be part of the Undergraduate Summer Internship Program in Boston, MA. The program is full-time (40 hours/week) that spans 10 weeks during the summer with a start date of June 2, 2025.

1. Group intern project

Interns will work as a cohort on a group project throughout the summer. This project will be based on a real problem that needs to be solved. The end goal of the project is to create a broadly used application that will be utilized throughout the firm. During the project, interns will gain hands-on experience with data analytics, project management, programming, and business process improvement. Each intern will have the opportunity to lead part of the project. At the end of the summer, the interns will deliver the final solution to a group of senior leaders. Projects will change every year based on current business needs and new technologies.

Interns will also have the opportunity to shadow technology professionals as they work together with business partners to solve problems. This internship is ideal for those interested in exploring a career in the technology side of the investment management industry. It offers a valuable opportunity to develop proficiency in programming languages, enhance adaptability and learning agility, sharpen problem-solving skills, and foster collaboration.

2. Getting to know our firm

Through a series of interactive lunch and learns, interns will learn from seasoned professionals about various departments and functions within the company. Interns will attend multiple social networking events with senior leaders. These opportunities, among others, will allow interns to build their network and discover what makes the culture at Wellington so unique.

Summer interns are paired one-on-one with a mentor who is dedicated to their learning and growth. Interns will also interact and collaborate with other seasoned professionals on a daily basis.
