ROLE OVERVIEW
Ready to ignite your career in digital marketing? We want YOU!
We’re looking for dynamic and creative individuals to join our Graduate Marketing Internship programme. If you’re eager to apply both strategic thinking and design skills in a fast-paced digital marketing environment, this is the opportunity for you!

The Hard Truth: Not For Everyone

Data Over Aesthetics: It is not all creative brainstorming and cute posts. We are a performance-led brand. If the analytics show a “pretty” campaign is failing, we kill it immediately.
High-Speed Multitasking: You will jump from influencer outreach to data entry to content creation in a single morning. If you need a slow, predictable workflow to learn, you will struggle here.
The “Invisible” Work: A huge part of this role is the heavy lifting behind the scenes (spreadsheets, tagging, and tracking). If you are only here for the “glamour” of marketing, you will be disappointed.

MyRunway is committed to transformation and redressing of past inequalities. Our employment equity goals will be taken into account in our selection process.

Thanks so much for your interest in MyRunway! We’re lucky to receive a lot of applications, and while we try to respond to everyone, if you don’t hear back from us within two weeks, it means we’ve moved forward with other candidates. We truly appreciate you taking the time to apply!
