Remote sales intern- Bilingual

Acuity Inc., Atlanta, GA, United States


Job Summary Are you a driven and talented individual looking for the place to do your best work while developing into an impactful leader? Look no further than the Acuity Brands Internship Program!

The Acuity Brands Internship Program is a 10–12 week experience (May–August, 40 hours/week) designed to develop high potential candidates into leaders through hands‑on experiences that connect interns’ strengths and interests with the needs of the business. In addition to making an impact through your participation in key projects and transformative processes, you will have an opportunity to mentor and network with leaders across Acuity Brands.

We prefer that interns only have one or two semesters left in their degree program so they can be considered for our Leadership Program immediately following the completion of the internship. Our Leadership Program is a full‑time, entry‑level rotational program that allows recent graduates to explore different areas within a functional area. These experiences enable young talent to grow their skill set and network within the company while figuring out what they are passionate about early in their careers. This role works remotely from the United States and travels based on business needs.
