Granite Partners is seeking an outstanding candidate to join our team as an Events & Business Operations Intern in the spring of 2024 through spring of 2025. The Events & Business Operations Intern will get broad exposure to a wide range of administration functions and learn what it’s like to work for a mission-driven private investment and holding company.

During the internship, you will gain experience in event planning, project management, process management, and technology support as you help us grow the Minnesota-based Granite Companies. The Events & Business Operations Intern position will be full-time at the conclusion of the 2024 spring semester and continue part-time through the 2024-25 school year.

  • Solve problems like a consultant – learn to structure and break down problems, manage a project plan, and translate meaningful insights into actionable recommendations.
  • Think like an owner – learn to make decisions for the long-term, with 100-year sustainability in mind.

COACHING & MENTORSHIP

  • Receive weekly personalized coaching from an assigned mentor at Granite Partners who will help ensure you are acquiring skills, developing relationships, and growing as a future business leader, while getting the support and tools you need to complete your projects.

EXPERIENCE THE GRANITE COMMUNITY

  • Understand how Granite Partners approaches the Granite community and invests in “all stakeholders.”
  • Participate in and support annual Granite Days events and experience collaboration among leaders across the Granite Companies.
  • Gain exposure to the digital strategy and transformation projects taking place throughout the Granite Companies.
  • Spend time with other Granite Company interns at Granite Intern Day – a day of connecting, networking, building relationships, and attending the FranklinCovey “7 Habits of Highly Effective People” Forum.
  • Participate in a range of social activities to get to know the firm and have fun

POTENTIAL PROJECTS

The Events & Business Operations Intern’s projects will be assigned based on a balance of business needs and experience or interest. Examples of projects could include:

  • Supporting event planning and projects for annual Granite Days events.
  • Planning and executing processes at the new Granite Innovations building.
  • Developing technology support tools for Granite Innovations.
  • Managing business administration processes.
  • Leading event planning and coordination at Granite Innovations.
  • Collaborating and supporting overall Granite Partners team efforts.
  • Communicating and collaborating with an ecosystem of vendor partners, including technology, food and beverage, and office support.
  • Supporting the Granite Partners team through meeting scheduling, meeting preparation, PowerPoint development, and communication.

A successful Events & Business Operations Intern at Granite Partners will:

  • Be a sophomore or junior at a four-year college or in the first year of an associate’s degree
  • Have strong academic performance and a demonstrated record of achievement
  • Have strong technology and systems skills
  • Have summer, student, or full-time work experience

  • Have excellent written and verbal communication skills and the ability to establish and maintain working relationships with a diverse set of stakeholders and colleagues
  • Thrive in a small, agile, and entrepreneurial team working across a range of responsibilities and assignments simultaneously
  • Be a continuous learner who is caring, supportive, and anticipates the needs of other team members; be willing to “roll up your sleeves” and help wherever needed
