Analytics Graduate Intern

Nike - Beaverton, OR

At Nike, we are always on the offense, and we are looking for talented and energetic self-starters with a passion for data to join our new and quickly growing Analytics team. As a Business Analytics Manager Intern, you will directly shape the future of analytics at Nike by gaining insights from data and presenting recommendations to senior leaders, leading high-visibility cross-functional projects, implementing capabilities such as data visualization, predictive analytics, and exception-based analysis, and building an analytics platform across the company. You will work on relevant, influential questions and opportunities that will help Nike surpass its aggressive growth targets.

As a Business Analytics Intern, you will collaborate with a team of cross-functional partners and analytics professionals to identify, scope, and execute high-impact analytics projects across the organization: category, geography, and technology.

While you rely on data to prove your point, you love to think outside the box and solve problems creatively. You thrive in an entrepreneurial environment, and you are excited by the challenge of building something from the ground up.
