Fall 2024 Operations Intern

Who we are and our Internship Program:

BMF is a collective of Cultural Engineers headquartered in NYC with offices in Miami, Los Angeles and London. We are a global, full-service integrated marketing agency, specializing in event design & production, brand marketing, marketing strategy, sponsorships, talent management & bookings, publicity, and social media & influencer relations. We constantly strive to expand our offering as an agency. 

The BMF team is looking for US Fall Interns to join our teams including Client Services, Production, Operations, Public Relations, Engagement, and Strategy. This is an unpaid internship with a duration from September to February; you must have part time availability and must be able to receive school credit to be eligible!

Our internship program is designed to give students a distinct learning experience different from the exposure acquired at schools or have had in previous internships. Through day-to-day mentorship, hands-on experience and access to category experts across the agency, our goal is for interns to be able to discover the ins and outs of all aspects of integrated marketing.

We ask interns to bring a professional attitude as well as the experience they have already collected. To us this means interns have and share ideas, are engaged in assignments, listen, ask questions, follow directions, show up on time, and in general give it their all. In return, it means BMF gives interns time, feedback, insight, help, and a push in the right direction when needed. Bottom line – we are in this together, so we all learn and have a rewarding and fun experience.
