Looking to gain hands-on experience at a boutique public relations agency?
Blend PR is looking for creative, motivated, and enthusiastic Public Relations Interns to join our Toronto team for Winter 2027.
With over 17 years of experience, Blend PR specializes in beauty, wellness, medical aesthetics, fashion, and lifestyle communications. We work with established and emerging brands to develop creative campaigns, secure meaningful media coverage, build influencer relationships, and execute memorable events.
This is an opportunity to work alongside experienced PR professionals, contribute to real client campaigns, and gain valuable insight into the day-to-day operations of a fast-paced PR agency.
Important: Applicants must be enrolled in a post-secondary public relations or communications program that requires an internship or work placement as part of their studies.
As part of the Blend PR team, you'll gain practical experience across several areas of public relations, including:
- Media Relations: Research journalists, media outlets, and emerging opportunities while supporting media outreach, pitching, and press release development.
- Influencer Relations: Help identify influencers and content creators, coordinate product gifting, manage outreach, and support influencer campaigns.
- Creative Campaigns: Contribute fresh ideas for press releases, product launches, brand activations, and PR initiatives.
- Social Media: Support content creation, research, and social media activities across Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube, and other platforms.
- Events: Assist with planning and executing media previews, brand launches, influencer events, and client activations.
- Research & Reporting: Monitor media coverage, track campaign results, research industry trends, and identify new opportunities for clients.
- Agency Life: Participate in team meetings, brainstorming sessions, and day-to-day client activities.
We're looking for someone who's curious, creative, organized, and genuinely excited about the world of public relations.
Requirements:
- Currently enrolled in a post-secondary PR or communications program with a required internship component
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills
- Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and time management
- A creative mindset and genuine interest in media, influencers, and brand storytelling
- Familiarity with Instagram, TikTok, and other major social media platforms
- Proficiency in Microsoft Office and Google Workspace
- Ability to manage multiple tasks and meet deadlines
- A proactive attitude, strong work ethic, and willingness to learn
- Interest in beauty, wellness, fashion, and lifestyle industries
- Availability to work from our downtown Toronto office once per week, with the remaining days worked remotely
- Access to your own laptop
Experience with Canva, Photoshop, InDesign, or social media content creation is an asset, but not required.
Why Intern at Blend PR?This isn't an internship where you'll spend your days watching from the sidelines.
We believe the best way to learn PR is to experience it firsthand. From your first week, you'll have opportunities to contribute to real campaigns, join creative discussions, and gain exposure to multiple areas of the industry.
What You'll Gain:
- Real-world experience working with established and emerging beauty, wellness, and lifestyle brands
- Exposure to media relations, influencer marketing, events, and social media
- Mentorship and guidance from experienced PR professionals
- Opportunities to develop your writing, communication, organizational, and creative skills
- A collaborative, supportive, and fast-paced agency environment
- Access to a selection of premium beauty, wellness, fashion, and lifestyle products
- A performance-based stipend of up to $2,000 CAD, subject to completion of the full internship period and a final performance review
- Potential consideration for future employment opportunities based on agency needs and individual performance
We value the talent and fresh perspectives our interns bring to the agency. When opportunities arise, we love considering former interns for positions within our team.
Internship Commitment & StipendThe internship runs from January 4 to April 30, 2027.
Applicants must be available and willing to commit to the full four-month period, even if their school's minimum required internship hours are completed earlier. Any work beyond the school's approved placement must comply with applicable employment standards requirements.
A stipend of up to $2,000 CAD is available upon successful completion of the entire internship. The final stipend amount will be determined based on the intern's performance, contributions, professionalism, and overall end-of-term evaluation.
