Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.

My role was incredibly varied but i got the opportunity to work on multi-channel campaign delivery, product launches, retailer launches, CRM, as well as so many internal projects.

Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?

Yes, i was given responsibility really early on, working with agencies to create imagery for campaigns. I ended up driving product launch strategy and being able to negotiate with retailers ahead of brand launch

Company Culture

What was the company culture and general atmosphere like?

A really great and exciting place to work. I came out of my assessment centre wanting to work there because the office seemed young, inspirational, and full of energy. It's an atmosphere where everyone is learning and developing, and at least in my team, it was totally OK to make mistakes and learn from them!

Overall Experience

To what extent did you enjoy your placement / internship?

I honestly absolutely loved it and really want to go back and work there. The job confirmed that marketing is what I want to do for my long-term career; the environment was motivational, and the social side with 100 other interns was fantastic and meant I made so many lifelong friends.
