by a searcher from University of Pennsylvania - The Wharton School in Philadelphia, PA, USA
Wharton Capital Holdings LLC, a search fund featured in Bloomberg, The Real Deal, and NPR, is recruiting Social Media & Influencer Marketing Interns to support one of its portfolio companies — a fast-growing women’s wellness brand focused on science-backed beauty and health.
The Principal, Angela Romero (Wharton MBA ’23), is a former Google executive and two-time fellowship recipient — the Forté Fellowship for top women in business and the Perlman ETA Fellowship for high-potential entrepreneurs in acquisition.

This opportunity is ideal for students or recent grads who love pop culture, beauty, and social media, and want to learn how a modern wellness brand grows online.
