CAA ICON Owner’s Representative / Construction Project Management Intern – Summer 2027 (Charlotte, NC)

About the role

CAA ICON is a division of Creative Artists Agency (CAA) and the industry’s leading owner’s representative and strategic management consulting firm for public and private sports and entertainment facility owners/operators, professional franchises, and leagues. With more than 100 sports, entertainment, and public assembly projects and over 2,500 consulting engagements, CAA ICON has managed the development of many of the world’s most successful venues across 11 professional sports leagues and over $45 billion in projects over the last 21 years. The firm offers world-class service in feasibility and planning, project management, and consulting.

We are looking for a collaborative team member who can successfully manage multiple competing priorities in a deadline-driven environment — a self-motivated, detail-oriented individual with a strong interest in business and a basic knowledge of building construction.

You will provide support to company operations or a project field team by assisting in various office, coordination, and communication responsibilities at the direction of your reporting manager. You may also directly assist clients with various project-related requests.

CAA ICON’s world-class internship is an educational, hands-on, project-based experience. As part of a highly collaborative global team, interns work with industry executives, develop personally and professionally through in-house professional development courses, and hear from executives across the organization throughout the internship. This application is for Summer 2027 in-person internship opportunities and is intended for current university students in their junior year, senior year, or a graduate program.
