Located in the buzzy Flatiron District of New York City, Forefront is an award-winning, rapidly growing marketing and PR firm that services the most influential companies in the capital markets and institutional fintech industries. We apply deep sector knowledge, decades of in-house experience and extensive industry connections to develop highly strategic, bespoke programs that help clients grow, regardless of their lifecycle stage.

We are looking for rising college seniors in the NYC area who are interested in developing their PR and marketing skills in the capital markets and fintech space.

The internship will provide the opportunity to gain hands-on experience within Forefront’s four practice areas: Content, Digital Marketing, Public Relations and Design.

In addition to the professional development in our four practice areas, interns will also join account teams in a client-facing role, which provides valuable access to senior staff and clients.

The internship will take place Monday – Thursday and would require a minimum of two days in the office (Wednesday and Thursday). Interns will be paid $20 an hour and work approximately 30 hours a week.

 

Forefront was named one of PRWeek’s Best Places to Work in 2024, a 2021 Top Boutique PR Agency by Insider, and was one of six agencies named to Observer’s prestigious Financial PR Honor Roll, spotlighting the most influential firms serving the financial services industry. The New York-based publication noted that “the agency punches way above its weight,” helping it build an impressive roster of clients. Forefront campaigns have also been recognized by the Bulldog Awards, Public Relations Society of America (PRSA) and PRNEWS’ Platinum PR Awards.
