About The Position

Endeavor's People and Transformation team sits at the heart of how we grow, develop, and support our global organization. From our headquarters team of ~80 to nearly 500 colleagues across 45+ markets, we focus on building the capabilities that allow Endeavor to better serve high-impact entrepreneurs around the world. We're looking for a detail-oriented, people-first graduate intern with a passion for HR to take ownership of high-visibility projects that strengthen how our People team operates day-to-day. This is not a shadowing role - you'll actively build, refine, and modernize the tools and processes our HR team and hiring managers rely on across the employee lifecycle. In this role, you'll help revamp Endeavor's HR toolkits of best practices spanning hiring, onboarding, and offboarding, work hands-on with our HR recruitment platform (including exploring MCP integrations to help our team use it more effectively), and support a range of additional HR duties as they arise. By the end of the internship, you'll have delivered tangible, adoptable resources that make a real difference for how our global People team - and the colleagues they support - get things done. This internship is ideal for someone with a background in Human Resources or a related field, genuinely passionate about people operations, and excited to gain real responsibility and visibility inside a mission-driven organization.
