We are seeking 2027 graduates who do not plan to pursue a Master's degree program after graduation.

THE ROLE 

Blue Ops is seeking an Analytics Intern to be an integral member of the Analytics Team and immersed in high-stakes projects, helping our clients make complex decisions through rigorous analysis and advanced data modeling. You’ll be learning to think like a consultant, investigating business problems, and helping to craft the data-driven narratives that guide executive strategy.

 

Throughout your internship, you’ll gain experience with investment banks, private equity firms and/or corporate clients while preparing and then analyzing business data to help improve corporate performance. 


Your Impact & What You'll Do

  • Solve Real Client Problems: Go beyond the classroom to tackle genuine business challenges. You will gather and analyze data from diverse sources
  • Develop Technical Solutions: Work alongside senior consultants to design and implement pragmatic data analytics solutions, transforming raw data (from databases, files, etc.) into powerful insights using tools like Power BI and Azure.
  • Contribute to Project Delivery: Support the full lifecycle of analytics projects, from client discovery and data gathering to modeling and the final presentation of insights, helping to ensure project milestones are met.
  • Learn Client Engagement: Gain invaluable exposure to client-facing work by shadowing senior team members, assisting in the preparation of client deliverables, and learning to translate complex findings for non-technical stakeholders.
  • Drive Insights, Not Just Reports: Learn to use data analysis to develop hypotheses and formulate strategic recommendations, contributing directly to the high-value advisory services we provide.

What We're Looking For (The Ideal Candidate Profile)

While technical skills are important, we prioritize a strong problem-solving mindset, a hunger for learning, and a collaborative spirit. We're looking for someone who is:

  • A Natural Problem-Solver: You are energized by ambiguity and enjoy breaking down complex, unstructured problems into manageable components to find a solution.
  • Analytically Minded: You have a strong quantitative background and the ability to see the story behind the numbers.
  • An Exceptional Communicator: You possess strong verbal and written communication skills and are capable of presenting ideas clearly and concisely.
  • Detail-Oriented and Resilient: You have a high bar for quality in your own work and can adapt on the fly in a fast-paced, dynamic consulting environment.
  • Intellectually Curious: You have a genuine passion for the intersection of data, finance, and technology, with an interest in investment banking, private equity, or corporate finance.

 

Your Qualifications

  • Currently pursuing a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Finance, Economics, Computer Science, Data Science, or a related quantitative field.
  • Demonstrated interest in data analysis and problem-solving through coursework, projects, or previous experience.
  • Familiarity with data manipulation and analysis tools; academic or project experience with SQL, Python, or R is a strong plus.
  • Exposure to data visualization tools like Power BI or Tableau is highly desirable.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Excel is required.
