Finance Intern

Location: Sloomoo Institute HQ – SoHo, New York City

Internship Term: Summer 2025, up to 32 hours per week 

About Us:

Sloomoo Institute is an immersive, hands-on experience celebrating slime and all things #satisfying. Founded in 2019 by two best friends who found healing through slime during difficult times, our mission is simple: to deliver joy. Playing with slime taps into four of the five senses — it’s visually mesmerizing, deliciously scented (our slimes are handmade and custom-scented), soothing to hear (hello, ASMR fans!), and delightfully playful to touch. Our spaces invite you to dig in, get messy, and reconnect with a screen-free sense of wonder — whether you’re a kid or a kid-at-heart. A finalist for Fast Company’s Innovation by Design Award, Sloomoo’s aesthetic is glossy, contemporary, and accessible. We currently operate locations in New York, Atlanta, Chicago, Houston, and Los Angeles — and we’re growing! As a mission-driven brand, we proudly support mental fitness through a partnership with Goldie Hawn Foundation’s MindUP and champion neurodiverse inclusivity — with more than 10% of our workforce identifying as neurodiverse.
