Internship Amazon Video Editing Jobs in Rhode Island

We're not just a company-we're a team of Owners.

PLM is a dynamic, fast-growing organization unleashing the power of merchandising to measurably impact sales and win in the retail landscape. Since becoming an ESOP (Employee Stock Ownership Plan) in 2017, we've built a culture where every employee is an owner, and learning plays a critical role in that ownership mindset. This internship offers hands-on exposure to real-world learning and development work that directly supports our employee-owners across corporate and field teams.

POSITION SUMMARY

The Training and Development Intern supports the design, development, and delivery of learning experiences that help PLM employee-owners grow their skills, business acumen, and understanding of our ESOP culture. This role is ideal for a student or early-career professional interested in HR, instructional design, organizational development, or corporate training.

Working closely with the Training and Development Manager, the intern will assist with content creation, LMS administration, reporting, and project coordination while gaining practical experience in modern learning and development practices.

What's in it for you?

This is a hands-on learning experience where you won't just observe-you'll contribute. You'll gain exposure to training and development, learning technology, facilitation support, and real business projects that impact thousands of employee-owners. You'll also build professional skills, expand your HR knowledge, and see how training supports business strategy and culture.
