The Opportunity
The Brand Creative Studio team drives the brand for Emerson Collective and our priority areas, working to change hearts and minds with world-class storytelling and creativity—big ideas such as advertising, marketing, and brand films, all the way to day-to-day content for brand channels. Design is also an output, from logos to event design and more. The Brand Creative Studio's work covers brand management, creative strategy, ideation, digital, production, and content creation roles, so there is a diverse range of responsibilities.
As the Brand Strategy & AI Research intern, you’ll work with the Brand Creative Studio team to explore how artificial intelligence can inform brand strategy, creative storytelling, and content production. You’ll contribute to brand and campaign development through research, landscape analysis, content creation, and the application of emerging AI tools.
Ideal candidates bring demonstrated experience and proven interest in exploring how AI can inform creative storytelling, production, and content—whether through coursework, personal exploration, or hands-on experience—along with strong research and synthesis skills.
