INTERNSHIPS

Our programs and initiatives encourage members of the community, young and old, to build and nurture a relationship with the local land and seascapes. Join Seaside Sustainability for any season, or during breaks in your school schedule, to explore a myriad of internship opportunities, relevant to almost any future interest.  

​

Seaside will provide opportunities for practice and refinement of many skills inherent to an internship position, including how to:

​

• Engage in a work environment (both in and out of the office) and present oneself professionally

• Write professionally and research effectively

• Navigate career-based decision making 

• Practice self-direction, self-sufficiency & critical thinking

• Verbal communication skills in face-to-face and phone meetings

• Hands-on experience in a fast paced start-up setting with constantly changing tasks

You don’t have to be based in MA to be an intern, we support local and virtual interns. Our interns have come from more than 900 colleges and universities and more than 20 countries!

Are you a good fit for Seaside Sustainability? 

At Seaside Sustainability, we work on a wide array of local, regional, and national programs and initiatives, which create real-world problem-solving opportunities that are interesting, diverse, and stimulating! Our work environment is incredibly fast-paced and projects are ever-changing, so interns learn first-hand how to be adaptable and flexible on the job. Our interns are never bored because they’re always given REAL and MEANINGFUL work.

All internships allow personal engagement with hands-on and exploratory work, which makes the Seaside experience incredibly rewarding. Interns are encouraged to be creative and to think critically about the initiatives they get to explore. All contributions are valued and utilized in Seaside’s decision-making process. Intern ideas never go unheard, and their work is directly applied to real-time projects. As a result, interns are able to make an immediate impact on the organization.

What will you do?

Interns will not be limited to just one role; we encourage each intern to take advantage of the opportunity to explore a variety of roles and responsibilities. Seaside also provides the chance for interns to work as Intern Managers or Project Managers. Both positions allow interns to build team management experience and deepen the scope of their work. Most projects are team-based, so interns at all levels will have access to regular feedback from their peers and supervisors, so that they can contribute their best work.
