A.Kennedy Consulting · Bordeaux, France
Where Strategy Meets Market Reality.
Two focused internships for driven, entrepreneurial students ready to work inside a boutique consulting firm helping European companies expand into the United States.
US Market Entry & Client Prospecting
"Identify and qualify European companies that are strong candidates for US expansion — and support Alaina in converting them into consulting clients."
Day-to-Day
- Research European companies by sector, size, and expansion signals that are likely candidates for US market entry
- Build and maintain a structured prospect database — company, decision-maker, LinkedIn profile, pain points
- Monitor news triggers (funding rounds, new hires, trade show announcements) signalling US expansion intent
- Draft outreach sequences in English and French for LinkedIn and email
- Prepare briefing notes on target prospects ahead of Alaina's outreach calls
- Track and report weekly on pipeline activity
Ideal Profile
A self-starter who takes initiative without waiting to be told what to do. Comfortable with ambiguity and energized by working in a fast-moving, small consulting environment. Brings an entrepreneurial mindset — they think about the bigger picture, not just the task in front of them.

Legal Framework: Both internships are structured as unpaid conventions de stage under French law.

A tripartite convention must be signed by A.Kennedy Consulting, the intern, and their educational institution prior to the start date. Interns must be enrolled in an accredited French or European educational program.
