Who we are:

 

At CubeSmart, we’re intentional about culture. You can experience it everywhere from our mission statement of “genuine care” to our “It’s What’s Inside That Counts” tagline to calling each other “teammates” rather than employees. This spirit fosters a fun and collaborative environment that has resulted in our rapid growth and being recognized amongst the top in our industry.

Teammates are passionate, responsible and understanding. The CubeSmart team is made up of people who have a can-do attitude, are committed to their own success and the success of the company, and lead by example.

 

If this sounds like a team and culture that matches your personal values and motivations, we want to hear from you!

Responsibilities:

The Relationship Management Internship is a learning-focused opportunity within our Relationship Management team, which serves as the primary point of contact for our Third-Party Management owners.  These owners own self-storage facilities and outsource the management and day-to-day operations to CubeSmart.  In this role, you will shadow and learn from experienced Relationship Managers, gain exposure to how third-party management relationships work, and build a foundation in the self-storage business.
