H2DI Operations Intern or Fellow, Fall 2024

The Operations Intern/Fellow will play a key role in ensuring the smooth functioning of the Hydrogen Demand Initiative’s (H2DI’s) operations. This position will primarily support the Executive Director’s calendaring and logistics needs, including both scheduling meetings and representing H2DI at meetings. The Operations Intern/Fellow will also assist with special projects including (but not limited to) stakeholder outreach, workshop planning, and database management. The Operations Intern/Fellow will also be required to coordinate with the H2DI Project Manager and the H2DI Analysis Team.

This role will be instrumental in driving the company’s financial strategy, ensuring financial stability, and supporting the overall business strategy through sound financial management.
