Public Relations Intern

At CloudAdvisors, we have created Canada’s first Group Insurance Marketplace, which connects a vast ecosystem of insurance stakeholders, including Insurers, Brokers, and Employers. Through the MBSI program, we aim to educate students about the employee group benefits industry in Canada. We will provide students with training and help them gain real-world experiences in a Software as a Service (SaaS) environment. The student will receive guidance, mentorship and be able to build a broad set of skills and experiences with us. They will be a part of real world decision-making and help us navigate change in the present economic reality. We will provide the students with an opportunity to collaborate and build meaningful relationships with employers across Canada.
