About the role
Leading the future in luxury electric and mobility
At Lucid, we set out to introduce the most captivating, luxury electric vehicles that elevate the human experience and transcend the perceived limitations of space, performance, and intelligence. Vehicles that are intuitive, liberating, and designed for the future of mobility.
We plan to lead in this new era of luxury electric by returning to the fundamentals of great design – where every decision we make is in service of the individual and environment. Because when you are no longer bound by convention, you are free to define your own experience.
Come work alongside some of the most accomplished minds in the industry. Beyond providing competitive salaries, we’re providing a community for innovators who want to make an immediate and significant impact. If you are driven to create a better, more sustainable future, then this is the right place for you.
About the Role
We are looking for a highly organized, systems-minded Intern to support priority initiatives within the Office of the President of Europe. This role works at the intersection of operations, and execution, helping ensure that cross-functional initiatives move forward with clarity, structure, and strong follow-through.
You will work closely with the Strategic Projects Manager and wider PMO to support day-to-day project tracking and reporting, while also contributing to improvements in how work is coordinated, monitored, and executed. The role offers exposure to senior stakeholders and broad visibility across the European organization.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys structure and execution, and who is naturally inclined to spot inefficiencies, simplify ways of working, and make processes more reliable and repeatable over time.
What You’ll Do
PMO Execution & Support
Support the tracking and coordination of strategic projects across the European organization
Maintain and improve PMO tools (e.g. Jira boards, trackers, action logs)
Support meeting hygiene: agendas, materials, minutes, and follow-up discipline
Ensure actions, dependencies, and risks are clearly captured and progressed
Automation & AI Exploration (progressively increasing focus)
Observe and document recurring PMO activities that create manual overhead
Help translate PMO needs into automation or AI-assisted use cases
Prototype smarter ways of working within the existing tool ecosystem
Key Deliverable: PMO Automation Project (Europe)
By the end of the internship, you will design and pilot an AI- and automation-driven PMO support model focused on reducing manual effort, improving reliability, and enabling "things to run themselves" wherever possible. This project builds on our existing PMO playbook and looks forward: how modern PMOs leverage AI, automation, and agentic support to scale. This may include:
Mapping current PMO activities and identifying candidates for automation or AI augmentation (e.g. reporting, follow-ups, status hygiene, meeting outputs)
Designing simple automation flows (e.g. reminders, status roll-ups, dependency tracking)
Prototyping Copilot / agent-based support for recurring PMO tasks such as:
Status update collection and summarization
Executive-ready reporting drafts
Action and risk tracking from meetings
Defining a clear "human vs system" split: what should be run by people vs by automation
Documenting recommendations, limitations, and guardrails for responsible use
The final output will be a practical, implementation-ready concept, outlining what could realistically be automated in the Lucid Europe PMO today, what could follow next, and how this improves execution, focus, and quality.
What We’re Looking For
Strong organizational and analytical skills, with high attention to detail
Clear written and verbal communication skills in English
Comfortable working with structured data, trackers, and presentations
Proactive, reliable, and comfortable juggling multiple priorities
Curious mindset with an interest in project management, operations, or strategy
Studying Business Administration, Project Management, Engineering, Economics, or a related field
Bonus:
Familiarity with project management tools (e.g. Jira, Planner, Smartsheet)
Strong Excel and PowerPoint skills
Interest in operations, transformation, or scale-up environments
What You’ll Gain
Hands-on experience supporting strategic projects in a European leadership context
Exposure to executive-level reporting and governance
Practical experience with PMO tools, methods, and best practices
Ownership of meaningful deliverables you can showcase
A collaborative, fast-moving, and purpose-driven work environment
This role is designed for someone who can work independently and take ownership from day one. You are comfortable driving work forward without waiting for detailed instructions, proactively identifying what needs to be done, and following through with a high level of accuracy and attention to detail. Mentorship and support are available, but autonomy, initiative, and reliability are core expectations of this role.
