General Description:

UNC Charlotte Dining Services is seeking creative, dependable, and outgoing students to join our Marketing Team.

This is not your typical marketing internship. Our interns are content creators, event planners, brand ambassadors, and storytellers who help shape the student dining experience on campus.

We're looking for students who think differently, bring fresh ideas to the table, and aren't afraid to step in front of a camera, work an event, or engage with students face-to-face.

Responsibilities:

• Create Instagram Reels, TikToks, and other social media content
• Capture photography and video content across dining locations
• Assist with planning and executing dining events and campus activations
• Staff promotional tables and represent Dining Services at campus events
• Promote meal plans, dining programs, mobile ordering, and rewards initiatives
• Conduct student outreach, surveys, and engagement activities
• Brainstorm creative marketing campaigns and event concepts
• Support social media coverage before, during, and after events

Preferred Qualifications:

• Active on Instagram, TikTok, and other social platforms
• Strong photography, videography, or content creation skills
• Comfortable being on camera and interacting with others
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
• Reliable, punctual, and able to meet deadlines
• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail
• Ability to work independently and as part of a team

We're Looking For Students Who:

• Are creative and think outside the box
• Have a strong work ethic
• Show up on time and follow through on commitments
• Bring ideas, not just execution
• Stay current on social media trends and campus culture
• Want hands-on marketing experience that makes a real impact

Learning Objectives:

• Develop and execute social media content strategies that support brand awareness, student engagement, and meal plan sales. 
• Understand how to plan, promote, and execute dining events, tabling activations, and student engagement campaigns from concept to completion. 
• Conduct basic market research through surveys, student feedback, and engagement activities to better understand student dining preferences. 
• Build a portfolio of real marketing work, including videos, event coverage, campaign concepts, photography, and brand ambassador experience. 
• Gain experience promoting business priorities such as meal plans, mobile ordering, rewards programs, retail dining, and residential dining. 
• Strengthen communication, time management, professionalism, and teamwork skills in a fast-paced marketing environment. 

This is a paid intern position; however, it is not eligible for paid time off (PTO) or benefits such as medical, dental, vision, etc.

Because this position requires you to perform services in an educational facility, there may be periods when the Company does not require you to perform work (such as winter and summer breaks when food service needs decline or cease). Any such periods during which you do not perform work on the Company’s behalf may be unpaid and deemed a temporary layoff. However, depending on business needs, you may be required to work year-round, potentially at a different location during break periods.  Business needs may vary from year to year.
