Communications & Marketing Internship in Newcastle

We’re offering Aussie uni students or recent graduates an epic online marketing internship.

We work with some of the biggest and smallest companies in Australia to help them dominate their niche online. Plus we run one of the most popular marketing blogs in Australia.

What this means for you is an internship with a difference - The Chimpternship. Yeh boy.

You'll have the chance to join our dedicated team and work on interesting clients, get published on our Jungle Gym blog and learn a host of new skills while you're at it.

What do we want from our newest young gorilla? It’s pretty simple really.

We want the keenest undergraduate storytellers / comms pros / marketers in the country. That’s all a little bit grandiose right? You want the deets.

Here’s the specs that’ll get us excited:

You have a fiendish passion to write
You might be completing (or have recently completed) a Business or Communications degree (or something similar) majoring in marketing, digital media, journalism, PR, or other associated topics
You want to learn how to edit, optimise and promote stories for a targeted online audience
You don’t inherently hate marketing
You’ve got big plans for yourself
You’re not scared of gorillas

We don’t care about experience. We just want curiosity, ambition and an inbuilt storytelling ability.

When

We take Chimpterns throughout the year. So send your application anytime.

How long

Flexibility is one of our noted strengths. Days, times, hours – all negotiable. Let us know if you're completing the internship as part of your study or just for your own experience.

Where

Gorilla HQ is in the heart of Newcastle West. You’ll be spending most of your time here if you are the lucky Chimpern. Delicious cafes and world class coffee are within walking distance. We’re spoilt gorillas. We’re also not opposed to some work from home hours.

We're not looking for your standard CV and cover letter. Instead get in touch and let us know:

Who you are
Do you have a specific time you need to complete an internship by? eg End of semester X?
Why are you looking for an internship? For example, do you need to complete the internship as part of your study, or is this something you are doing for your own experience?
What writing samples can you send us? Eg blog posts, articles you have written? (Preferably not uni assignments/essays, these are usually a bit too formal for simple Gorillas like us)
What paid work have you done? Hospitality? Marketing/comms? Family business? Part time job?

Cheeky hint

Try to tell us a story to convince the tribe you are worthy. A non-fiction story. That might help. Oh and to make sure you have some attention to detail, find a way to include the word “salmon” somewhere in your application.

Brevity will win you friends. The best kind of economy is word economy. Everyone who hated maths knows that.
