Strategy PMO Intern (Project Management Office) - 2026 Start (BS/MS)
Responsibilities
About the team
The Project Management Office (PMO) is a lean, central function that drives organisation-wide efficiency and transformation, partnering closely with senior leaders to translate strategy into execution. Operating across functions, the PMO focuses on solving high-impact problems where clarity, alignment, and execution discipline are critical.
By acting as a connective layer across teams, the PMO helps leaders clarify ambiguous problems, align stakeholders, and ensure strategic priorities translate into measurable outcomes.
This internship offers hands-on exposure to organisation-wide strategy execution and transformation work. Interns will work on real business problems such as productivity improvement initiatives, executive meeting optimisation, AI-enabled operational use cases, and OKR scorecards-grounded in real operational pain points from internal and external stakeholders.
The role focuses on structured problem-solving, stakeholder synthesis, and decision support, rather than software development or coding. Interns will work closely with project owners, Product teams, and senior stakeholders, with guidance and mentorship provided throughout the internship.
We are looking for talented individuals to join us for an internship in 2026*. Internships at TikTok aim to offer students industry exposure and hands-on experience. Watch your ambitions become reality as your inspiration brings infinite opportunities at TikTok.
