Global Team Internships in Bali
This experiential learning programme provides hands-on consultancy and strategy experience with business and charity client organisations on the tropical island of Bali. This programme is made up of four weeks of action-packed, collaborative and culturally immersive work experience. Work at vibrant and beautiful co-working offices close to Bali's thriving business ecosystem, experience masterclasses, networking and professional workshops, site visits to local businesses and social enterprises, and unique cultural experiences.
Working in small, multi-disciplinary teams, you will achieve real-world project challenges set by a range of inspiring host clients in an international professional setting.
When completing this project, you will gain vital soft skills, increase international experience and boost your employability. This is achieved through cultural immersion, agile teamwork and gaining professional experience in an international business setting.
Business Challenge
In multi-discipline teams of 4-5 students, students work as a small 'consulting team' for a client organisation in Bali. This is the opportunity for hands-on client facing experience, and to make a real contribution to partner organisation challenges. Working as a team, students take an idea to realisation, whilst developing employability skills and commercial awareness.
Industry Engagement
Students enhance their global career skills by learning to translate classroom learning into a deeper understanding of real-life international workplaces. Through client engagement, networking with business professionals and working in a professional co-working setting, students gain an awareness of commercial, social and behavioural contexts in professional life.
You will join a weekly schedule of workshops, presentations, coaching sessions and site visits to discuss with industry colleagues, business leaders, consultants, business councils, technology companies and start-up founders to provide a breadth of career focused learning opportunities.
You will have a dedicated Internship mentor to provide daily support including cultural guidance, networking guidance and an opportunity for regular feedback as students work through your team's work-based projects and engage in professional development workshops. Cultural understanding is key to this global internship, and Think Pacific include regular opportunities for cultural engagement and experience, including visiting markets, attending local cooking classes, wellness sessions including yoga and meditation and visits to sites of historic and cultural significance.
The internship programme works with Think Pacific's partner network of handpicked start-ups, SMEs and social enterprises based in Bali. You will be asked to undertake innovative, real world project challenges aimed at facilitating the innovation and growth of Balinese based businesses, whilst simultaneously testing your creativity, teamwork and problem-solving skills. You will be exposed to the challenges and complexities of the world of project management. Projects are multidisciplinary and include feasibility studies, marketing analysis, sales and marketing campaigns, fundraising strategies, business analysis, market entry strategies, and development of business plans for new opportunities.
