Doing marketing for a company that makes sanitary towels may be dull. Doing marketing for cool snowboard brands, does however have a certain allure. You’ll be doing everything from public relations with media, managing athletes, writing the catalogue and press releases, updating websites, organising events and photo shoots, and of course making tea, lots of it.

Many of the brands are located near the snow and (hopefully) you will be working with a bunch of young go-getters who all share your passion for snowboarding.

Industry socials (boozy sessions) are also fairly legendary and there will be a flow of free gear. You’ll need experience in marketing or PR, strong communication and writing skills. Or just know the boss.
