Marketing Internship
VERY CREATIVE Marketing Internship – opportunity for full-time position
Us
We are a young, fast paced, red hot start-up based out of the Salem State University Entrepreneurship facility and we’re trying to revolutionize the green building/retrofit industry across MA. This Green Hi-Tech company was started by four brazen, experienced entrepreneurs/industry veterans who are looking to bridge the gap between the technological, business, political and the green world. The response to the business has been tremendous and we’ve grown significantly as a company, over the past few months. Brushing shoulders, with some of the most powerful people in the state, we have been able to make a lot of headway towards our ambitious plan.
You
The ideal candidate for this position is very serious about their career. They understand that the best way to the top, is through meaningful, substantive, experience. Really talented employees are far and between and we’re looking for top tier talent. This is a Fall Internship program that will require 10-15 hours/week (That includes some out of office work). This is the perfect position for someone looking for more experience in creative design, project management, event planning, marketing, and sales. You will experience each in a substantial way during the course of the internship, within a structured schedule designed to maximize both your experiences within the company, and allow you to gain general knowledge of each segment.
1. Company Ambassador—you must have the ability to talk directly to the customers in an intelligent manner, and be an ambassador for the company
2. Super Intelligent—not just academic, but a smart thinking process is critical. GPA doesn’t matter, but you should be able to grasp concepts very quickly and form links between things.
3. Results Oriented—it doesn’t matter how much effort you put in, but you should WANT to get results. We’ll show you HOW to get them.
4. Problem Solving and Independence—you should be able to take a project and run with it. We won’t leave you hanging, but don’t expect any babysitting either.
5. Creativity—this role demands a lot of creativity and lots of NEW IDEAS. We’ll teach you how to turn that idea into STRATEGY.
6. Sense of Humor—Sounds clichéd, but very important. It helps us and will definitely help you get through those tough, mission critical, deadline driven times.
7. Notable experience with social media campaigns (and no, just talking to your friends on FB doesn’t count) and creative writing—a major part of your internship will involve developing blogs, writing content for the website, and producing press releases. A strong visual, aesthetic sense is also a strong plus.
Other traits that we’re looking for include: experience with customer relations management software (CRM), Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, InDesign, Dreamweaver, etc), email marketing software, and web analytic software.
You & Us
Our people are the most important part of our organization, and we help them build Careers and Resumes. We will help you further your career by offering you hands-on training, mentoring, and resources to explore your professional and personal areas of interest. Even though you will be empowered, we will help you grow and learn as an individual, as well as professionally. We offer a flexible Schedule and will work with your university/college to facilitate credit provisions etc.
We’ve all had internships (unfortunately) where we didn’t learn anything except how to file paperwork efficiently. This will not be one of those. We promise. We vowed not to ever let that happen to any of our employees.
In this internship, your efforts directly impact the company’s key objectives. You will:
1. Gain an understanding of the emerging green market and learn key strategies to effectively connect with target audiences.
2. Work with the experienced Marketing Team to develop cutting edge articles and engaging press releases.
3. Use your superior (or budding) graphic design skills to make things look amazing, yet easy to understand.
4. Develop and execute outstanding social media marketing campaigns
5. Manage every aspect of our special events from promotion to program planning.
6. Be part of a new and exciting industry!
SOUND FUN?
Not the ordinary, run of the mill internship, huh? Well, we’re not the ordinary, run of the mill company either. Prove to us that you’re extraordinary and we will be working on all these amazingly creative projects and more, in no time.
