Marketing Intern Role: Marketing Intern 

Locations: Nashville or Knoxville, TN 

Hours: 15–20 hours/week (Flexible schedule) 

Compensation: $15.00/hour 

 

Urbanex is a growing pest control company looking for a bright, motivated Marketing Intern to help us move our marketing initiatives forward.

We have a lot of exciting things happening across our markets and marketing channels, and we're looking for someone who can help us execute projects, stay organized, and turn ideas into completed work.

This isn't an internship where you'll spend your time making coffee or sitting in meetings. You'll have the opportunity to work directly with company leadership, gain hands-on experience with real marketing initiatives, and see how marketing contributes to customer acquisition and business growth.

We're looking for someone who's curious, resourceful, comfortable with technology, and willing to roll up their sleeves. You don't need to know everything, but you should be excited to learn, comfortable figuring things out, and committed to getting results.

What You'll Do

You'll support a variety of marketing projects across our local markets and digital channels, including:

  • Marketing project execution: Help coordinate and complete marketing initiatives, track tasks and deadlines, and keep projects moving forward.
  • Digital marketing: Assist with Google Ads, Local Services Ads, SEO, website improvements, and other digital marketing initiatives.
  • Local marketing: Help maintain and improve Google Business Profiles, local business listings, customer reviews, and location-specific marketing content.
  • Research and analysis: Research competitors, marketing opportunities, industry trends, and new ideas to help improve performance.
  • Marketing reporting: Help gather, organize, and analyze marketing performance data, including leads, customer acquisition, and campaign results.
  • Content and communications: Assist with website updates, marketing materials, content creation, and communications with internal teams and outside marketing partners.
  • Vendor and team coordination: Follow up with marketing agencies, vendors, and branch teams to gather information, track progress, and ensure projects get completed.

Your responsibilities will evolve based on your skills, interests, and the needs of the business.

What We're Looking For

  • Currently pursuing a degree in Marketing, Business, Communications, or a closely related field.
  • At least one year of college-level marketing coursework completed or nearing completion.
  • Some practical marketing experience through coursework, personal projects, internships, freelance work, or previous employment.
  • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.
  • Comfortable working with spreadsheets, online tools, and technology.
  • Good written and verbal communication skills.
  • A willingness to learn new platforms and solve unfamiliar problems.
  • The ability to manage multiple assignments, follow through, and work independently once given direction.
  • A genuine interest in digital marketing, analytics, and business growth.

Bonus points if you have experience with:

  • Google Ads, Google Analytics, or Google Business Profiles
  • Search engine optimization (SEO)
  • Canva or other design tools
  • WordPress or website content management
  • Excel or Google Sheets
  • AI tools such as ChatGPT
  • Social media or content marketing

You don't need experience with all of these tools. We're much more interested in your ability to learn and execute than in an extensive resume.

What Success Looks Like

We're looking for someone who makes things happen.

Success in this role means marketing projects are moving forward, tasks aren't getting lost, details are being followed up on, and work is consistently getting completed.

You'll be someone who can take an assignment, ask good questions, figure out the next steps, and follow through without needing constant reminders.

Over time, we'd love for you to develop a strong understanding of our marketing channels and take increasing ownership of individual projects.

What You'll Gain

  • Real-world marketing experience across multiple channels and markets.
  • Direct exposure to company leadership and business decision-making.
  • Hands-on experience with digital marketing, local SEO, lead generation, and marketing analytics.
  • Opportunities to take ownership of meaningful projects.
  • Flexible part-time work that can complement your college schedule.
  • The opportunity to build skills and experience in a growing business.

Interested?

If you're studying marketing, enjoy learning new things, and like the satisfaction of getting things done, we'd love to hear from you.

Tell us a little about yourself, why you're interested in marketing, and any projects or marketing experience you've had so far.

Candidates must be willing to complete a background check.
