Job Description:
Do you have a strong interest in how the investing and financial-services industry spreads its message? If so, Dimensional’s marketing summer internship might be the right fit for you!
Spend your summer working alongside top marketing professionals within asset management to develop innovative, academically backed ways of improving the investment experience.
Dimensional Fund Advisors is seeking undergraduate or graduate level students actively pursuing a degree to join our 2026 summer internship program. This nine-week program will be fully in-person and expose interns to the day-to-day activities of the Marketing group in support of Dimensional's brand and messaging.
The Marketing department enables sales by offering compelling answers to the question, “Why Dimensional?” Marketing partners with sales groups, investment teams, and executive leadership within Dimensional to help develop, refine, package, and spread Dimensional’s message and philosophy around the world. Our teams—which include Channel Marketing, Operations, and Corporate Communications—collaborate across the firm to communicate Dimensional’s unique offering to clients and advance its position in the marketplace.
Responsibilities
The internship will provide the opportunity to learn how the team conveys Dimensional’s brand and offerings in an accurate, compelling, and differentiated manner. Marketing does this by applying a deep knowledge of Dimensional’s capabilities, an understanding of specific client needs, and an awareness of competitors’ efforts to all our initiatives.
Marketing teams collaborate with many other departments at Dimensional, and interns will have the opportunity to learn about the larger organization while completing work on various marketing materials. Interns will also be given an individual research project based on a current high-priority marketing initiative, followed by the opportunity to present findings and recommendations to the department and leadership at the end of the internship.
