Who You’ll Work With
This role sits within the Milan Marketing team and partners closely with Brand Marketing, Retail Marketing, Marketplace Planning, Store Teams, and cross‑functional partners across Europe. The work spans Nike Stores, Partner doors, community partners, and city cultural connectors to bring sport and creativity to life in Milan.
Who We’re Looking For
We’re looking for curious, energetic marketeers who connect with sport, culture, and the creative pulse of Italy—anchored in Milan and extending across the nation’s key cities and cultural hubs. You bring a fresh point of view and enjoy shaping ideas from concept to execution. You’re hands‑on, collaborative, resilient, and comfortable managing multiple priorities across categories such as Running, Training, Football, and sport-led lifestyle moments.
You understand how brand storytelling connects to local culture and how retail execution shapes the consumer journey. You can zoom into details while still keeping the bigger strategic picture in mind. You’re motivated to learn, open to new tools (including data and AI), and energized by working with stores, stakeholders, and local communities.
You Bring
* A strong affinity for sport, culture, fashion, and the creative identity of Milan
* Curiosity, collaboration skills, and a positive, driven mindset
* Ability to balance detail orientation with strategic thinking
* Comfort working across Brand and Retail environments
* Interest in data, insights, and emerging marketing tools
What You’ll Work On

INTERNSHIP — RETAIL MARKETING

* Collaborate with EMEA, local store & Marketplace teams
To Be Eligible, You Must
