Data Analytics Internship

Braun Management assists executive teams across Europe in resolving deep-seated organizational friction and clarifying decision rights when internal structures falter. We provide evidence-backed conclusions and rigorous analysis to leadership teams navigating complex governance and operational challenges.

The role

We are currently supporting a large South African client as they investigate structural truths within their expansive operations. This Data Analytics Internship exists to help translate raw operational data into clear, written insights that inform executive decision-making. Working as part of our fully remote team, you will help identify patterns in organizational behavior and financial reporting, ensuring our recommendations are grounded in reality rather than assumptions. This role is essential for turning abstract business problems into concrete, data-driven pathways for our partners.

What you will do

• Clean and organize large datasets provided by our South African client to ensure accuracy in our final consulting reports.
• Assist in constructing basic models that illustrate how changes in decision rights might affect operational efficiency and cost centers.
• Draft detailed summaries of findings that explain complex business systems in plain, professional language.
• Verify the integrity of internal client databases to prevent errors in our performance analysis and restructuring plans.
• Create visual representations of resource allocation to help executive teams identify where friction occurs.
• Support the senior consulting team by performing specific queries into departmental performance metrics and reporting structures.
• Maintain thorough documentation that tracks how various data points are collected and processed during the engagement.
• Collaborate with other team members through written reports to refine the accuracy of our organizational audits.

What we are looking for

• A strong foundational understanding of spreadsheet tools and basic data visualization principles gained through studies or personal projects.
• Familiarity with statistical concepts and a comfort level with interpreting numerical trends.
• Intellectual curiosity regarding how large organizations function and how structural decisions are made at the executive level.
• The ability to write clearly and concisely without relying on professional filler or corporate buzzwords.
• High attention to detail when working with complex sets of information that require precise handling and organization.
• A systematic approach to problem solving that prioritizes logic and evidence over intuition or guesswork.
• Comfort working independently in a fully remote environment where communication happens primarily through written documentation.
• Willingness to learn new methods of analyzing organizational behavior and corporate governance structures.

How we work

Braun Management operates as a fully remote organization, which allows us to focus on deep work and clear documentation. We avoid unnecessary meetings, preferring to share well-structured drafts and data reports that invite thoughtful feedback from the team. Our culture is built on accountability and the belief that clear writing is the result of clear thinking. You will be expected to manage your own schedule while contributing to a team that values precision and the unglamorous work of finding structural truths. We value results that are evidence-backed and delivered with professional sobriety.

What we offer

• A fully remote work schedule that provides flexibility and autonomy in how you manage your day.
• Direct exposure to high-level organizational restructuring and executive-level consulting projects.
• Mentorship from senior consultants who value rigorous analysis and clear, logical reasoning.
• A professional environment that rewards quiet competence and the ability to solve practical problems.
• This is a paid internship offering a competitive rate for the current market and level of experience.
• Experience working on a significant engagement with a large international partner.

This role is vital for ensuring that our advice to our South African partner is rooted in objective fact. By organizing and interpreting the data, you help us strip away organizational noise to reveal the underlying friction points. Your work will provide the evidence necessary for leadership teams to make the difficult choices required for long-term growth and structural clarity.
