Shadow a Planner across a variety of roles (IMC, Price, Box Tops for Education, Multi-cultural, Brands on the Go, etc) and observe a variety of projects that this function contributes to the overall Marketing team. There will be an opportunity for meet and greet with Leadership Team during a panel Q&A session
