Company Description: Since 1998, Rocky Top Catering has been the gold standard for hospitality and event excellence in the Raleigh-Durham area, serving as the exclusive authority behind some of the region's most iconic event spaces. As the sole catering partner for the NC Museum of Natural Sciences, the Blue Zone at Kenan Stadium, and premier venues like Millbrook Manor and Cross+Main, we operate at a significant scale and an uncompromising standard. We specialize in transforming vision into reality, whether it’s a game-day activation for thousands or a sophisticated downtown wedding. Joining our team means gaining access to the Triangle’s most prestigious venues and working alongside a high-performing group of "magic makers" dedicated to set-designing the art of celebration.

The ideal candidate is a creative storyteller who is equally comfortable behind a camera and in a professional networking environment. This internship provides a front-row seat to how a high-performing marketing team operates, offering you the chance to contribute to real projects that impact our brand’s footprint in the local market.

    • Brand Activations & Events: Attend any local community events and act as a brand activation ambassador to capture content (includes things like local expos, visitor bureau, planner meetups)
  • Marketing Assets: Assist in the creation and updating of marketing assets including menu packets, venue packets, sales decks, email campaigns, brochures, etc. Organize and manage a digital portfolio library for team-wide use. 
  • Market Research: Keep the Charlotte team informed on local trends, competitors, and upcoming events in your specific city.
  • Administrative Support: Assist the Marketing Associate with keeping content and photo galleries organized and up to date. 

Qualifications:

  • Current Junior or Senior pursuing a degree in Marketing or Business.
  • Organized and dependable with attention to detail. 
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
