Summer Intern Program 2027

Job Description Summary

Who We Are
Never settle for the world that's been built, but relentlessly drive it forward.
At Cushman & Wakefield we outthink and outdo the challenges of the built environment for the benefit of our clients, our colleagues, and our communities. We employ the most talented professionals in the industry and invest in the resources and technology that let them deliver innovative advice and real, measurable results.

Job Description

This is not a shadowing program. You'll join a service line team as a working member of it - contributing to live assignments, sitting in on client conversations, and owning real deliverables from your first weeks.

Along the way you'll build genuine fluency in commercial real estate: how deals get done, how properties are valued and financed, how markets move, and how the industry's terminology, processes, and regulations actually work in practice. You'll leave with experience worth bringing back to your campus, your classmates, and your organizations.
You'll also take part in a firmwide program series built around executive speakers, service line deep dives, professional development workshops, networking events, and a capstone project presented to senior leadership.
