We're looking for a Marketing Events Intern to support the planning and on-the-ground execution of Zymix's brand activations across the UK, including our flagship ZYMIX Spotlight student talent competition. This is a hands-on role as you'll be out at venues, on campuses, and at events, not just helping from behind a desk. You’ll work directly with the Event Marketing Manager and collaborate across our social, PR, content & KOL, and agency partners. If you're someone who gets excited about the operational craft of events and marketing, this is for you.
What You’ll Support
- Support the delivery of ZYMIX Spotlight, our nationwide student talent competition: from campus auditions through to flagship live events at the Roundhouse (London) and New Century Hall (Manchester).
- Help coordinate student talent sourcing and applications, liaising with university societies and student unions.
- Support the Student Brand Ambassador programme: assisting with onboarding, briefing, and day-to-day coordination of ambassadors on campus.
- Help track KPIs for the talent show and ambassador programme, including sign-ups, engagement, and campus reach.
- Assist with logistics for talent show heats and finals, including artist/performer liaison, run sheets, and on-site support.
Event & Activation Delivery
- Assist with end-to-end event delivery: venue setup, supplier coordination, logistics, on-site support, and post-event wrap-up.
- Help deliver city activations in London, Manchester, and other UK cities. Pop-ups, launch events, brand experiences etc.
- Get on the ground at UK universities for campus activations, freshers' week events, and student society partnerships. Expect to be on campus, not just behind a laptop.
- Support supplier and venue coordination: building contact lists, chasing quotes, and tracking deliverables.
- Help uphold Zymix's brand standards at every event: visuals, tone, attendee experience.
- Assist with performance tracking: attendance, content capture, social reach — and contribute to post-event reports.
What You’ll Bring
Must-haves
- Currently studying or recently graduated in marketing, events, communications or a related field.
- Genuine interest in brand activations, live events and consumer marketing.
- Some hands-on experience with events: through university societies, volunteering, part-time work or personal projects.
- Strong attention to detail and a proactive mindset: you don't wait to be told what to do.
- Comfortable being on your feet all day. Event days are long and fast-paced.
- Based in or able to travel to London.
Nice-to-haves
- Experience with student union events, freshers' fairs or campus activations.
- Existing connections with university societies, talent/music scenes or student ambassador networks.
- Interest in Gen-Z culture, social platforms, consumer tech or talent shows.
- Familiarity with event tools: Eventbrite, Canva, Google Sheets or similar.
