Intern Abroad Program Manager

Intern Abroad Program Manager
Lisboa
Lisboa, Lisboa, Portugal

Are you interested in startups, entrepreneurship and education, passionate about world travel, and believe in the value of global experience? We are a
- based social enterprise committed to teaching college students and recent graduates real skills that will give them a competitive edge in the global economy. To do so, we are changing the face of the study abroad industry by shifting its focus to experiential learning. We believe today's students can do more than learn about Asia’s political economy on a chalkboard. Why not learn, instead, how to build an Asian market entry strategy. . . and help a company execute it?

Welcome to Sage Corps - an international internship program that sends top college students abroad to work with tech startups. We've developed an entrepreneurial study abroad program where students step out of the classroom to tackle real problems and build real solutions alongside CEOs, CTOs, and CMOs. We think experience is the new classroom.

We are currently looking for a talented,
- minded person to join our growing team!
