Summer Intern - Program Management

If you want to do something that matters, this work matters. Patients drive our passion to pioneer novel cancer therapies. That?s why we?ve built an environment centered around support, flexibility, and a shared mission. Creating and delivering medicine for cancer can only be done through focus, dedication, and heart. We hire exceptional people and trust each other to work in whatever way lets us, be us ? whether that?s onsite, from home, or anywhere in between.

Our summer intern program, which will run from May 27th ? Aug 8th, allows students to gain real world work experience in a high energy, collaborative work culture.

This internship provides a unique opportunity to work cross-functionally within key areas of Karyopharm. The Intern will focus in Strategy, Portfolio Management, and Business Operations to deliver on multiple objectives. The intern will work cross-functionally with Program Management to evaluate Program Team resources which outline the drug development end-to-end process and develop an interactive onboarding/training tool. Additionally, the Intern will work closely with Program Team members to collect and integrate feedback on the tool to ensure business needs are met. Deliverables will include a completed intranet site with the repository of Karyopharm?s drug development end-to-end process resources, and learn to collect, process, and implement stakeholder feedback.
