APPLY at www.centerstage.org/Education/ProfessionalInternshipProgram.aspx THE MANAGEMENT INTERN works with the Managing Director and Associate Managing Director in all aspects of theater administration. The intern’s work will fall into two categories: special projects and ongoing assignments. Special projects will be fluid and in response to circumstance. In the recent past they have included assisting with strategic planning; designing and launching the Board Observership Program (in which trustees are invited to observe the production process); writing a funding proposal; and conducting field-wide best practice research. Ongoing assignments might include conducting donor prospect research; compiling and distributing CENTERSTAGE’s biweekly newsletter to trustees; coordinating the Board Observership Program; maintaining administrative accounts and concessions reconciliation; and tracking job and internship applications. The ideal candidate for the Management Internship has a bachelor’s degree, some professional experience, and/or a graduate degree. Strong organizational skills and the ability to shift gears to take on new challenges are important. Excellent writing skills and the ability to create an attractive and effective work product—be it text, spreadsheet, power point, or multimedia—are also essential.
