We're going through an extended period of growth and are in the process of international expansion having already expanded into the German market, meaning there is no better time to join us – especially as an Events Marketing Intern!

The Role:

As an Events Marketing Intern, you'll join a supportive and collaborative Events Team. The team has two arms, and you'll be working directly with the Events Marketing team members on a wide range of projects & responsibilities. We're an all-hands-on-deck team, so you'll also get the chance to collaborate with the Event Managers and other interns to support with delivery tasks when needed.

• Assist with the creation and development of relevant content for the Bright Network website
• Review and proof-read digital and print marketing materials to ensure high-quality content is communicated to our B2C audience
• Create and execute the social media strategy for upcoming events
• Assist with end-to-end event management of our current portfolio of events including, but not limited to, preparation and coordination of events, managing the events inbox by responding to student and client enquiries and creating event applications and surveys
• Manage the application process and ensure event attendees are kept warm throughout the application process and lead up to the event, as well as manage attendance on the day of events
• Support with on-the-day delivery at events, either live or virtual, and ad-hoc support in the run-up
• Assist our Event Project Co-ordinator with post-event analysis
• Support with community management – including managing pre-event online community groups (Guild) and Student Leadership Boards
