We employ the most creative people in the world, and then give them the support to constantly innovate, iterate, and form lasting relationships with consumers.

As a Marketing Vanguard Program Graduate Intern, you will join us as a strategic contributor.

The internship combines hands‑on, on‑the‑job experience with leadership mentorship and targeted development, preparing high‑performing interns for continued growth and future leadership opportunities within Nike. WHO YOU’LL WORK WITH: As a Marketing Vanguard Program MBA Intern, you’ll be embedded within a Nike Marketing team aligned to a critical brand or business priority and will own and deliver a defined project that supports the team’s strategic objectives. While intern placements are determined later in the process, all MVP interns collaborate closely with experienced marketers, cross‑functional partners, and senior leaders across the organization—working at the intersection of brand strategy, consumer insights, creativity, and execution. Through experiential project work, functional programming, and leadership engagement, you’ll gain exposure to the breadth of Nike’s marketing ecosystem while contributing work that influences how the brand shows up for consumers.

You’ll work closely with experienced marketers and cross‑functional partners to help shape consumer‑right marketing plans, taking responsibility for defined components of larger initiatives and gaining insight into how marketing strategy is developed, executed, and brought to life at scale.
