About Waxing the City – Lakeland

We’re a high-end waxing and skincare studio, opening this summer at Lakeside Village in Lakeland, FL. More than just a beauty business, we’re here to build confidence, create community, and set the standard for service and experience in Lakeland.

About the Role

We're looking for an energetic, people-oriented community marketer who’s eager to help launch a new local brand. This is a paid internship-to-hire role with room to grow into a part-time, higher-paying contractor position depending on your performance and availability.

You'll be the face of the studio at local in-person events, build community partnerships, and create social content that brings our story to life. This role will be involved in both pre-opening ramp up and steady state.

What You’ll Do

Represent our studio at 1–2 local events weekly (farmers markets, fitness pop-ups, chamber events, etc.)
Coordinate with nearby businesses to develop creative, mutually beneficial partnerships
Plan weekly outreach huddles with our in-studio team
Source and assemble swag bags and branded giveaways
Capture and create behind-the-scenes content for Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok
Monitor campaign results and share ideas to improve outreach

You Might Be a Fit If You...

Are majoring in or have a background in sales, marketing, communications, public relations, or event planning
Are outgoing, reliable, and love talking to people
Enjoy planning events and building brand buzz
Can make or edit quick content (Reels, Stories, or TikToks)
Are familiar with Canva, Instagram, TikTok, and Google Drive
Are local to, or can travel to, the Lakeland area to attend events or meetings in person with own transportation

Compensation & Growth Path

Start as a paid intern ($15–$18/hr) depending on experience
If successful, grow into a part-time contract role ($20–$25/hr) with increased responsibility
Future perks include service discounts, branded swag, and more

How to Apply

Send your resume, a short message on why you're a fit, and (optionally) a sample of social content or event work to: bill.fink@waxingthecity.com

Compensation: $15.00 - $18.00 per hour
