Join us as an intern on a 12-month industrial placement in the B2B & Pro Photographer Imaging Customer & Channel Marketing team, and discover the world of Canon, where we use imaging to transform our world. Here at Canon UK, we believe in creating an environment where our interns really can learn by "doing", and where they are given ownership of their own areas of responsibility right from the start of their time with us. That's why you'll be treated as part of the team from day one, encouraged to bring your own ideas to the table – and given the opportunity to really show what you can do.
You'll be gaining real life marketing experience, assuming real responsibility and making an impact from the get-go. For this fast-paced placement we are looking for customer minded individuals with a self-motivated approach to work, used to working in a high pressure, time sensitive environment with the ability to manage multiple projects and timelines simultaneously.
