Vacancy
As a Marketing and Sales Intern, you fully participate in the Orbisk Marketing and Sales teams. During this internship, you will work on supporting our Marketing team and helping in Sales related activities.
You will have the opportunity to help elaborating a suitable sales plan, in which you describe how Orbisk can introduce their food waste solutions to the market and new customers. Besides, you attend sales meetings, visit (potential) new customers and go to sales pitches. The administrative processing of information about customers in the CRM system is also part of your task package.
In addition, you will support our marketing team with a broad range of tasks that will boost Orbisk's Brand Awareness and reach to potential customers. You will perform market research and analysis to identify new opportunities and competitive strategies, as well as create content for social media and other marketing materials. You will also deep dive into our data and analytics from our website and paid ads.
You will be part of the Marketing & Sales team, which currently consists of the Head of Sales and Marketing, a Growth Marketer, a Marketing Manager and three Business Development Managers. You will be actively involved in the company by participating in team meetings and having one-on-one conversations with your colleagues. A senior member of your team will be your supervisor during your internship.
If you enjoy working on marketing campaigns, selling a sustainable product and can thrive in a start up environment, then this is the job for you!
Working week
On an enjoyable day, you attend a customer visit and have an appointment with one of the founders of Orbisk about food waste. In the afternoon, you work on the sales plan for the latest food waste monitor. At the end of the day, you enjoy having a drink with your colleagues!
On a less enjoyable day, you mainly perform administrative tasks, such as archiving potential customers in the CRM system. This is quite a job, but in the end it will lead to the emergence of new food waste warriors.
