Marketing Placement 2023

Dyson is a global technology enterprise. We solve the problems others choose to ignore, with surprising new inventions that defy convention and simply work better. We’re driven by progress and thrive on the challenge of relentless improvement. We’re growing fast and our ambition is huge – more categories, more locations and more people.

Our scale and rapid growth make Dyson rich in new opportunities. We value new ideas and diverse perspectives, so our people are trusted with real work and responsibility from the outset. You’ll be part of a global network of like-minded people – a community that supports and learns from each other.

At Dyson we do things differently. We look for the brightest new interns with the right attitude to thrive in our unique culture. We offer real jobs with real salaries and you will have autonomy and freedom to excel and have real impact on our business. This is why we need self-starters, people who are motivated and drive themselves forward.

About the role

We’re constantly refining and redefining our global marketing strategies and campaigns to create customer and owner experiences that are authentic and uniquely Dyson. The Marketing team work collaboratively across all functions within Dyson, to make sure the right messages are in the right place at the right time.

During your one year placement you will work on cross functional projects with a range of teams such as the Retail, Digital, Media, Owner Engagement, PR & Communications, Social Media & Insights teams as well as gaining product experience within the Personal Care, Environmental Care and Floorcare categories.

The experience gained will be varied and you could be involved with some of the following, depending on the business priorities: activating campaigns and new product launches within your function, ensuring correct approval protocols are followed; analysing data from sales and customer insights to pull out key findings to inform future marketing strategy; work on Owner Experience campaigns to maximise loyalty within existing owners. You could be acting as a runner on TV and photographic shoots for new campaign collateral, obtaining sign-off on a suite of marketing assets such as brochures and retail fixtures, briefing press adverts and digital content to enable projects are delivered on time and on budget.

Working with the team and interacting across business stakeholders, you’ll be comfortable learning from others but also sharing your own knowledge, ideas and opinions.

For the duration of your internship, you will have regular performance conversations as well as opportunities for development to enable you to build your reputation within the wider team and we’ll be looking to offer our high performing interns the opportunity to return on our Marketing & e-Commerce Graduate programme.
