Junior Analyst, Lexington - Spring 2026

Junior Analyst Program

Coastal is looking for motivated individuals looking for a first-hand look at the technology consulting world to join our team as part of our Junior Analyst program. Our program is designed for current university students near one of our office locations with an interest in technology, consulting and networking, and learning new tangible skills through a comprehensive internship program during the summer, fall, or spring terms. Coastal is a top-ranked Salesforce Platinum Partner that is focused on building lasting relationships with our clients, and although we're working with and implementing innovative technology, our primary focus is our people and our clients. Our part-time, paid internship program is 8-12 weeks, depending on the term, and will provide you with the hard skills needed to be successful in the technology industry. You'll closely work alongside top industry leaders, shadowing real client calls and internal meetings, creating a team-focused case study based on real client scenarios, and of course, experiencing a fun and flexible team culture at one of the top Salesforce partners in the country.
