This internship offers a unique opportunity to join a growing consulting firm focused on customer-led growth. As an intern, you will help answer Manifesto’s clients’ biggest questions and drive internal initiatives that shape our US business.
Manifesto do growth strategy. We've developed a unique approach called Growth Architecture that helps businesses grow faster, sooner. We were established in London five years ago by former consulting & marketing executives who envisioned an ‘antidote’ to big consulting: a company founded on strong relationships with a more nimble and innovative way of working with clients. As ‘growth architects,’ we combine a nuanced understanding of people, culture, and innovation with an ability to help our clients identify & prioritize opportunities and deliver a plan for growth. Our problem-solving approach blends Customer Insight, Innovation, Value, and Delivery, and our founding clients represent media, publishing, and financial services industries.
At Manifesto, we challenge one another to get to the best answers for our clients and our business by rigorously debating and agreeing on a course of action that everyone aligns behind to execute. Employees don’t fit a certain ‘mold’—rather, the magic is in the mix. Each employee brings a diverse set of skills and interests to our business, representing a multi-disciplinary group of business strategists, data analysts, marketers, innovators, and customer insight specialists.
As an intern, you will join a small team where you can expect exposure to senior leaders and a manager who will provide oversight and feedback. At the end of this internship, you will have:
- Gained an understanding of Manifesto’s approach to solving clients’ business problems
- Delivered insights that are used in strategic recommendations for our clients
- Supported your project team as a valued and trusted member
- Ensured client projects run smoothly
- Driven internal projects that make a lasting impact on how we operate as a company
