Job Description

Hybrid

Groupon is a marketplace where customers discover new experiences and services everyday and local businesses thrive. To date we have worked with over a million merchant partners worldwide, connecting over 16 million customers with deals across various categories. In a world often dominated by e-commerce giants, we stand out as one of the few platforms uniquely committed to helping local businesses succeed on a performance basis.

Groupon is on a radical journey to transform our business with relentless pursuit of results. Even with thousands of employees spread across multiple continents, we still maintain a culture that inspires innovation, rewards risk-taking and celebrates success. The impact here can be immediate due to our scale and the speed of our transformation. We're a "best of both worlds" kind of company. We're big enough to have the resources and scale, but small enough that a single person has a surprising amount of autonomy and can make a meaningful impact.

2025 Summer Intern - Business Growth MBA Intern 

The Category Growth Management team is responsible for driving initiatives to accelerate growth, improve profitability, and enhance customer satisfaction across Groupon's categories. You'll have the opportunity to make a high-impact contribution, shaping the success of key categories and driving meaningful results for the business.

As a 2025 Summer Business Growth MBA Intern on the Category Growth Management team, you will take responsibility for a selected category and its growth, leveraging internal data and market insights to identify growth opportunities, and collaborating cross-functionally to improve the performance.

The 2025 Summer Internship program is scheduled to be 10 weeks from June 2, 2025 - August 8, 2025. The program will be a hybrid schedule based out of our Chicago office. Interns will be required to be in the Chicago office two days a week which is consistent with our current US employee office policy. All other weekdays, interns have the flexibility to work remotely.

You'll spend time contributing to the following: 

  • Category Ownership: Take responsibility for category performance, driving growth, profitability, and customer satisfaction.

  • Market Research: Deeply understand industry trends, competitors, and customers to identify growth opportunities.

  • Performance Tracking: Continuously monitor category performance and provide data-driven insights to optimize sales, marketing, and product efforts.

  • Category-Specific Strategy: Develop a strategy, break it into actionable bi-weekly sprints, and drive cross-functional execution.

  • Deal Quality & Supply Cleanup: Review and optimize supply to ensure relevance, quality, competitive offerings, and a strong product mix.

We're excited about you if you are:

  • Currently pursuing an MBA degree at an accredited university.

  • Proven ability to lead initiatives end-to-end, collaborating with Marketing, Sales, and Product teams to deliver impactful results.

  • Passion for driving business growth and identifying opportunities to achieve measurable impact.

  • Analytical mindset with the ability to translate insights into actionable steps.

  • Excellent business sense, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills.

  • Agility to adapt quickly and shift priorities in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.

Compensation: 

  • $30-50/hour

Beware of Recruitment Fraud: Groupon follows a merit-based recruitment process without charging job seekers any fees. We've noticed an increase in recruitment fraud, including fake job postings and fraudulent interviews and job offers aimed at stealing personal information or money. Be cautious of individuals falsely representing Groupon's Talent Acquisition team with fake job offers. If you encounter any suspicious job offers or interview calls demanding money, recognize these as scams. Groupon is not responsible for losses from such dealings.
