We provide extensive opportunities for personal and professional development, building both employee competence and organizational capability to fuel exceptional performance through an inclusive environment both now and in the future.

    Vizient Intern Program Overview: 

    This program is designed to foster a beneficial relationship and provide growth opportunities for Vizient, our employees, and collegiate students. Since 2000, our summer intern program has provided college undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral students with practical experience that exposes them to multiple aspects of a career field and the healthcare industry. This full-time, paid intern program offers an opportunity to accelerate academic learning, apply classroom knowledge, and introduce students to a professional setting. Interns are assigned a supervisor to mentor/develop their business skills, as well as monitor their work experiences. Interns are integral members of the company’s team, setting goals, working toward deadlines, and actively participating in community service projects. 

    The program requires the intern to commit to 10 weeks of participation in all formal training, mentoring, on-the-job learning, and opportunities to interact with senior leaders. 

    • Program starts June 1, 2027, and ends August 6, 2027 
    • Pay rate: $25 per hour. 

    About the team and role 

    The Strategy & Execution team helps Spend Management translate strategy into coordinated action and measurable business outcomes. The team partners with leaders and cross-functional teams to bring structure to complex priorities, strengthen execution, improve visibility and accountability, and help move critical initiatives from strategy through implementation and value realization. 

    This internship will support the team’s current focus on strengthening how strategic initiatives are planned, managed, and measured across the business. The intern’s primary project will help address the need for greater consistency and visibility across key initiatives by supporting the development and improvement of practical tools, processes, and insights used to track progress, identify risks and dependencies, and communicate outcomes. This work will contribute directly to building a more scalable Strategy & Execution capability while giving the intern exposure to strategy, program management, business operations, and cross-functional execution. 

    What You’ll Do 

    • Develop reusable templates, playbooks, and tools that improve the consistency and efficiency of strategic program execution across Spend Management. 
    • Maintain project plans and track action items, risks, dependencies, decisions, and milestones across strategic initiatives. 
    • Analyze project data, document current- and future-state workflows, and identify insights and process improvement opportunities. 
    • Collaborate with cross-functional partners to gather information, clarify requirements, and support project and business transformation activities. 
    • Prepare clear process documentation, presentations, status updates, and executive-ready summaries that communicate progress and key findings. 
    • Support continuous improvement efforts by developing process maps, standard operating procedures, and other resources that strengthen execution and enable sustainable business transformation. 

    What You’ll Learn 

    • Develop an understanding of Spend Management and how strategic initiatives and business transformation efforts support broader organizational priorities. 
    • Build hands-on experience with Microsoft 365 tools, including Teams, SharePoint, Excel, PowerPoint, Planner, and other collaboration tools, while developing skills in strategic program management, process improvement, process mapping, and data analysis. 
    • Learn how Strategy & Execution partners across functions to align priorities, manage dependencies, solve business challenges, and support effective execution. 
    • Strengthen professional skills in project management, stakeholder communication, problem-solving, executive-ready storytelling, and translating complex information into clear, actionable insights. 

    Qualifications 

    • Currently pursuing a degree in business, healthcare administration, project management, operations, analytics, information systems, or a related field. 
    • Proficiency with Microsoft 365 applications, particularly Excel, PowerPoint, Teams, and SharePoint, with an interest in expanding capabilities across additional M365 tools. 
    • Coursework or demonstrated interest in project/program management, process improvement, business analysis, data analytics, or organizational transformation. 
    • Strong analytical, organizational, communication, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to organize information and translate it into clear insights and deliverables. 
    • Interest in healthcare, Spend Management, strategic program management, process improvement, and business transformation. 
    • Ability to manage multiple priorities, work effectively in a collaborative environment, and travel as needed.
