At PURINA, we believe that pets and people are better together. And behind the brands that pet owners know and love, there is a passionate team bringing new products, campaigns and ideas to life.
As our Marketing Intern, you’ll join that team for a 6-month paid internship and get the opportunity to experience what working in marketing for a leading PetCare business is really like.
From launching new products and developing packaging to bringing campaigns to life and creating engaging digital content, no two days will look exactly the same. You won’t just observe from the sidelines. You’ll contribute to real projects, share your ideas and see how marketing plans turn into something consumers experience in stores and online.
You’ll work closely with our Brand Managers, different teams across the business and our creative and communication agencies. Along the way, you’ll learn how to manage projects, work with different stakeholders and build brands in a fast-moving FMCG environment.
We’re looking for someone who is curious, proactive and ready to learn. Someone who enjoys taking ownership, isn’t afraid to share an idea and likes finding creative solutions. If you combine that with a good eye for detail and a positive, can-do attitude, you’ll fit right in.
Your Responsibilities:
- Bring new products to life : Get hands-on experience with product launches and renovations, supporting projects from packaging development and artwork adaptation through to bringing the final product to the Belgian market.
- Campaign Activations: Support the development and rollout of marketing and communication campaigns, including adapting international campaigns to make them relevant for Belgian consumers.
- Create content people want to engage with : Dive into digital marketing by working on online assets, website updates, CRM newsletters and campaign activations. You’ll also get exposure to projects involving influencers and website internal partners.
- Become a real part of the team : Support the marketing team on day-to-day activities and different projects, while having the opportunity to bring your own ideas, creativity and fresh perspective
- Help us make a positive impact for pets : At PURINA, our commitment goes beyond our products. You’ll have the opportunity to support initiatives that bring our commitments to pets and society to life, including activities and communication with shelters, associations and other partners
