2020 PAID SUMMER INTERNSHIP OPPORTUNITY

WHO ARE WE?

Hello! We are Morgan and Matson, the proud founders of Rocco & Roxie Supply Co. - a family-owned pet supply business located in beautiful Provo, Utah. When we dreamt up Rocco & Roxie, we went to work with a simple mission in mind: “Make the very best products for pets, and the people that love them.” 7 years later, we’ve stayed true to our mission and our success has surpassed our expectations. We make the #1 Pet Stain & Odor Eliminator on Amazon (among other great products), and we recently launched in 1,500+ PetSmart stores in the US and Canada. As our business continues to grow, we are looking for ways to give back to our community. We are also eager to learn new things and build meaningful relationships with talented people who are passionate about pets. In an effort to accomplish this goal, we’ve decided to launch an internship program, and we are looking for our first ever intern to join our R&R family in Provo, UT.

 

WHY ROCCO & ROXIE?

The goal of this internship program, just like our business motto, is simple:
You learn from us + We learn from you = Together, we make magic happen!  

What exactly do we have in mind? Well, we’re not exactly looking for someone to grab us our morning cup of joe if that’s what you’re thinking. To be honest, we don’t drink coffee (...but we promise not to be upset if you decide to grab cookies or donuts on your way into the office!). We are looking for someone who will roll up their sleeves and work alongside us. We want you to be part of our work family!

During your 10-weeks at Rocco & Roxie, you’ll have the opportunity to work with and learn from our 9 employees and gain insight into how a successful family business is run. You’ll be joining us at a very exciting time! Not only are we moving into our brand new offices, which we’ve designed ourselves, but we are currently in the early development stages of our very first large-scale commercial campaign.  

Furthermore, in addition to mentorship from our Rocco & Roxie family, you’ll have an opportunity to gain insight into the advertising world from a fellow Duck and Oregon alumni. Becca Purice, who is helping us set up this brand new internship program, is a seasoned ad producer and a friend of Rocco & Roxie. She currently resides in Los Angeles and will provide a virtual one-on-one mentorship. 

 

WHO ARE YOU?

You are a passionate “content maker” who is humble, creative, and has some serious shooting/editing chops. You’re also a self-starter, who isn’t afraid to experiment, with an insatiable appetite for MAKING AWESOME THINGS -- We want to provide you with a creative playground to put your talents to good use. We hope you’ll help us develop creative strategies/content to reach pet loving consumers and influencers to help drive brand awareness and grow our following on social media. This means you’ll have the opportunity to bring ideas to life and shoot both photos and videos, edit, write copy, etc. And when we say ideas -- we mean both yours and ours. While we like to think we’re good at what we do and have great ideas, we think we have a lot to learn from young minds -- so our intention is to create a collaborative environment, where you will feel empowered to share ideas and not simply execute ours. And we hope you’ll have some fun doing it!

To further get your creative juices flowing, we’d like to mention that we have a laser cutter (like this one). We use it to engrave dog tags … If you’re curious and eager how to use it, we’ll train you and you’ll have access to it so you can make even more awesome things (like this).

 

MAKING THE CUT ...

  • Must be willing to relocate to Provo, Utah for the 10-week duration of the internship, and provide your own transportation.
  • Start date: Monday, June 29th, 2020
  • Class of 2019 / 2020 / 2021 graduate
  • Minimum 3.0 GPA
  • Degree in advertising, journalism or film preferred
  • Previous internship experience preferred, but not required
  • Must be able to shoot both stills and video.
  • Proficient in Adobe Premiere, Photoshop, and Illustrator
  • Familiar with developing content for social media platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, TikTok
  • Must love pets! No egos! Non-negotiable!

 

PERKS

  • Stipend
  • Free Housing
  • State of the art facilities with gym, showers, kitchen on-site
  • Pet-friendly office environment.



NEXT STEPS

If you think you’re the rockstar we are looking for, please send your resume and portfolio to rpurice@gmail.com with the subject line: ROCCO & ROXIE Internship. While we don’t require a cover letter, we’d love you to tell us in a few sentences why you’d be a good fit for Rocco & Roxie.
