Intern - Marketing

This is a Full Time Unpaid Internship

We are seeking a marketing intern to join our team. The position will see the candidate focusing on day-to-day marketing tasks and working alongside our 4-person staff team, artists, and external industry figures as part of an intimate and independently-minded team. As we are a small label, the internship extends far beyond administrative tasks and will see the candidate gaining an actual insight into the running of a label and how various parts of the music industry work. You will have the opportunity to work with two fantastic pop/rock/indie artists in Q2/Q3 and a further two or three in Q3/Q4.

Responsibilities include:
-Coordinating features with a range of press outlets
-Following, updating, and maintaining a highly detailed marketing plan for each artist we work with
-Writing press releases and biographies
-Keeping band and label sites organized and updated
-Upholding the label's ethos and creating long-term partnerships and relationships for the label with external entities through your work with them

As far as skills go, excellent online and verbal communication skills are essential, but we're more interested in character traits such as ambition, initiative, professionalism, pride and passion in own work, a desire for success, and a fascination and love for music and the independent music industry. Previous marketing or industry experience is an advantage, but not necessary provided that a will to learn is there.

The position lasts 6 months (until the end of the calendar year) and begins immediately. It is perfect for music geeks who spend a lot of time online and have a few hours a day to spare and would like to explore a career in the music industry. The internship is remote.
