OPEN INTERNSHIPS
PMG’s annual summer and winter internship programs are offered to junior and senior college students, recent graduates and individuals interested in pursuing a career in equestrian-focused media.
Interns are mentored by a seasoned account executive to ensure a quality level of education in the areas of public relations, journalism, client management and more. Throughout the program, interns will be responsible for photographing and writing news articles about the Winter Equestrian Festival, the Adequan Global Dressage Festival, other competitions and clinics for our news websites, PhelpsSports.com and PSdressage.com. They will also support hands-on tasks ranging from publishing press releases and feature magazine articles to social media management and website maintenance.
Ideal candidates should have an equestrian background with majors in public relations, marketing, journalism or a related field. Applicants should have strong writing skills and some knowledge of equestrian competition. Experience in photography and/or graphic design is helpful but not required.
The winter internship is available from January through early April in Wellington, Florida, while the summer internship runs from late May through August with interns traveling across the United States for horse show coverage. It is a paid internship and interns must be able to provide their own housing and transportation. PMG will also assist with anything required for academic credit.
To apply for the internship, please e-mail a resume, two writing samples and photographic samples to Rebecca Walton at rjw@phelpsmediagroup.com for more information.
