Campus's revolutionary Campus Brand Manager programmes are designed to offer the brightest and most enthusiastic students from around the country the opportunity to act as ambassadors for specific brands on campus.
As a Campus Brand Manager you'll get to experience what it is really like to get involved in big brand marketing and you'll get to try your hand at a whole series of marketing activities from undertaking focus groups and research surveys to running promotions and working with student media.
Being involved as a Campus Brand Manager should be fun and help you enormously when it comes to building your CV and getting the best kind of job. It's a serious commitment but it shouldn't take up too much time or ever get in the way of your studies.
What's in it for you?
In return for the experience you gain, the brand you are involved with will benefit from your insight and be able to communicate more effectively with student consumers. As well as experience you'll get training, invitations to events, a selection of goodies and of course financial rewards. It is a real win win for all involved.
All Campus Brand Managers who complete two or more terms work with us will be eligible for a special Career Development Award from the Chartered Institute of Marketing.
What you'll do?
Activities that you could get involved with as a Campus Brand Manager might include:
- Advising us on student behaviour and lifestyles.
- Running awareness building campaigns.
- Liaising with your student media (press and radio) to generate publicity.
- Communicating with key 'movers and shakers' on campus, ensuring their awareness of the brand and creatingenergetic ambassadors around your university.
- Advising on opportunities for more effective promotions to the students at your university.
- Feeding back information on local events that could be used to promote the brand you represent.
In the early days we'll suggest specific projects but as time goes by we hope your initiative and knowledge of campus life will become more dominant in building the profile of the brand that you are working for at your university.
