About The Position

Ascend is a South Florida healthcare management company building the marketing and technology infrastructure that drives growth across a portfolio of home health and healthcare services.

The intern will work directly with the Director of Operations, learning how a business acquires clients, converts leads, and builds digital authority, while building the systems that enable these functions. All systems built will remain with the business after the internship. The specialist will design, build, and manage the digital marketing and technology infrastructure that drives client acquisition and brand authority across Ascend's managed service lines. This is a hands-on role with direct exposure to growth strategy and operational decision-making. The specialist will gain practical experience in CRM architecture, conversion optimization, paid advertising, marketing automation, and content production, building real systems with real performance data. The role begins with a structured orientation to the Ascend management model, service categories, and client segments to ensure all technical and marketing decisions are grounded in a clear understanding of the business.
