Marketing Internship – Summer 2023

Q5 is looking for a graduate to join our team in either Leeds or London, UK for an 8 week period over the summer of 2023.

We are award-winning experts in organisation change, helping to build better businesses across the world.  We are all about organisational health, which separates good organisations from the great. Whether our clients are at the top of their game (and want to remain there) or are in ‘turnaround’ mode, we all need to work on our organisational health.  Whatever the situation, be it a strategic conundrum, a market opportunity, or an operational gripe, we combine the art and science of organisational health to help our clients improve and excel.

Q5 was set up to be nimble enough to work across different sectors and locations, and create results based on the specific needs of our clients. We are pleased to offer 8 week internships to undergradutes and graduates within our Marketing team.  

The purpose of this role is to support Q5 marketing activities as part of the ‘Work Winning’ team of marketing and business development.  The Marketing Intern will be a key support to different team members on their various workstreams.
