BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT INTERNS
Recognizing the new momentum building behind a second wave of sustainability initiatives, we are starting a new business development initiative led by Steve Reinhardt, a 25 year marketing and business development veteran and one of Natural Logic’s Senior Associates. This initiative will have the following objectives.
- Gather and review various sustainability indices and assess for alignment/opportunity against Natural Logic priorities and current high priority leads
- Improve and implement systems for categorizing and prioritizing leads and funnel into existing database.
- Assist in developing contact strategy including targeting, media (web, direct mail, sales call, webinar etc) and other tactics to reach prospects.
You’ll learn new business development from seasoned professionals, and learn sustainability consulting from one of the best firms in the business. Depending on your background and skill set, you may have the opportunity to work on new business we land.
We plan to kick this project off immediately and we imagine it lasting 4-8 weeks depending on outcomes. We will be meeting at the Natural Logic offices in Berkeley and this person will need to be flexible enough with schedule to meet two days per week. This internship is unpaid. (If you’re in school, we’re happy to work with your institution to support course credit if appropriate.)
Some private sector experience in marketing, sales or new business development preferred. Please send resume* and cover letter to sreinhardt [at ] natlogic [dot] com with the subject line, “YOUR NAME: BizDev Intern Candidate.”
MARKETING/SALES INTERN: Energy Services
Natural Logic is looking for a sustainability-minded marketing/sales intern to help us with a new service offering. We are contacting state and city Department of General Services offices to engage them around our retrofit optimization service.
Our ideal candidate will have experience with market research and sales development. Energy efficiency experience a plus. This is a great opportunity to work with an established strategy consulting firm providing government and corporate clients with results-focused programs that build profit and competitive advantage while reducing an organization’s environmental footprint, waste and risk.
The initial scope of work (projected 10-20 hours, with a possible extension for the right candidate) will consist of researching contact information, contacting DGS offices to generate interest, and referral of contacts to Natural Logic consultants.
Please send resume* and cover letter to interns.natlogic.com with the subject line, “YOUR NAME: RetrofitOptimizer Intern Candidate.”
