Sustainability Project Associate- 6-month Internship

Contentsquare is a digital experience analytics company dedicated to making the digital world more human through online experiences that respect the user’s time, privacy, and ability. Since our founding in France in 2012, we have grown to be a truly global team, representing more than 70 nationalities in offices across the world, including New York, London, Paris, Munich, San Francisco, Barcelona, Amsterdam, Tel Aviv, Tokyo, Singapore, and more.

Since the beginning, we’ve developed a reputation for helping leading companies better understand and build trust with their customers. In that time, we’ve been recognized by Frost & Sullivan as a Global Company of the Year, and by Wired Magazine as one of Europe’s hottest startups. In May of 2021, we raised **$500M i**n Series E funding, but we’re not stopping there.

To reach our ambitious goals for the future, we will be nearly doubling the size of our global workforce in the next 2 years. Want to learn, innovate and contribute your unique perspective to an industry leader? Join the team dedicated to bringing more human analytics to the world #WeAreCSquad

We are proud of these achievements. But we’ve also come to believe that our story needs to be more than just the sum of our business metrics. In the words of our founder, “Our growth must have meaning. We can’t become one of the greatest software companies in the world if our company isn’t good for the world.” That same year, we pledged to mobilize those very advantages to become a force for positive change. We also welcomed our Chief Impact Officer, who is now building out one of the first Impact Teams inside a unicorn. We’re assembling a diverse group of talented individuals to move the needle in areas such as digital accessibility, data ethics, DEI, sustainability and startup philanthropy. This team will show that not only should startup growth go together with progress, but also that-with enough grit, ambition and soul-it actually can.
