Learn at the frontier

Prospect Intelligence Intern

Prospect intelligence produces the dossier that exists before a first meeting: what one named institution is trying to achieve, what it has publicly committed to, who decides, and what it is most likely to object to.

Please note this is an unpaid internship — the offer is real work, mentorship and experience at the frontier, not a stipend.

01 — The role

Why this role exists at EduRankAI

EduRankAI is developing next-generation technologies in Artificial Intelligence, Education Technology, Research, Product Engineering, and Digital Innovation. Prospect intelligence produces the dossier that exists before a first meeting: what one named institution is trying to achieve, what it has publicly committed to, who decides, and what it is most likely to object to. The work is per-account and on request, not list building. You will read annual reports, governing-body minutes, accreditation submissions, press coverage and departmental pages, then compress them into a one-page brief a colleague can absorb in four minutes before a call. After each meeting you check which parts of the dossier proved accurate and improve the template accordingly.

02 — The work

What you will own

  • 01 Produce one-page prospect dossiers on named institutions ahead of first meetings, to a fixed template and a fixed deadline.
  • 02 Identify the decision unit for each account: who signs, who influences, who can block, and what each of them cares about.
  • 03 Summarise the institution stated priorities from public documents such as annual reports, strategic plans and accreditation submissions.
  • 04 Anticipate likely objections and prepare an evidence-backed response to each, marking clearly where we do not have a good answer.
  • 05 Track account triggers including leadership changes, new campuses, accreditation cycles and funding announcements.
  • 06 Debrief with the colleague after each meeting to test which parts of the dossier held up, and refine the template from that feedback.
  • 07 Maintain a dossier library so the same institution is never researched from scratch twice.
