Marketing Intern for Business Executives for National Security
Business Executives for National Security (BENS), a nationwide, non-profit, non-partisan organization comprised of and funded by business executives, is looking for an unpaid intern to design marketing materials for our CA members. This is an exciting opportunity for someone who is creative, has initiative, and can work autonomously. It is also an opportunity for someone to create and own a project and help build their portfolio. This position will also expose the intern to important national security issues we are facing, and how business involvement is helping to solve some of our security problems.
These materials (brochure, one pagers, etc) will serve as marketing tools that describes BENS to prospective members and organizations, and creates interest and recruitment of new members. BENS is located at 160 Spear Street (at Mission). The intern can work from BENS office or at home. Hours are flexible, depending on the intern’s schedule, and internship length is three months.
If interested, please contact Kathy Denzer at kdenzer@bens.org or call her at (415) 536-1617. Visit our website at www.bens.org
Background on BENS
BENS founder, Stanley Weiss, a mining entrepreneur, started BENS 25 years ago after working with the government. Stanley thought government would be much more efficient and able to deliver more effective services if they utilized some business practices and expertise.
It is a member-based and driven organization that utilizes business expertise to solve some of our nation’s problems. BENS works with government agencies, congress, and business members to leverage the resources and talents of the business community for the good of the nation.
BENS helps to affect our national security policy by involving businesses in shaping and/or changing policy, influencing how government agencies implement policies and services
This cooperative relationship addresses two central security problems: How can we best combat and respond to threats that cannot be deterred or negotiated away? And how can we find the resources to reshape and rebuild our military forces for the 21st century?
