Tower, one of Cayman’s leading strategic communications agencies, recently added two Caymanian students, Parker Godwin and Stefan Langlois, to its team as summer interns.

Parker Godwin, 21, is a senior at the University of South Alabama, where he is double majoring in Marketing and Management. Parker also has previous intern experience at The Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman and Carey Olsen.

“Tower strives to make a difference in the community, not only through its charitable and pro-bono work, but also in offering training and educational opportunities for Cayman’s young people,” Parker said. “Given my passion for business and sport, and with clients that also includes local sports teams and the Spirit of Sports initiative, Tower was the perfect fit for me. Spending time throughout my summer gaining valuable experience has made me ever-determined to work in Marketing upon completion of my degree.”

Stefan Langlois, 19, had recently completed his first year at Bishops University, Canada, where he is pursuing a degree in Economics. After stints in Cayman companies such as Al La Kebab, Books and Books, Cayman Music School, CI Precast, Blackbeard’s and the Liquor Outlet, he was eager to gain experience in Cayman’s media and communications industry.

“As one of Cayman’s oldest and largest agencies, the decision to join Tower was easy,” Stefan said. “The team are smart, fun, creative, and good at what they do. Creating innovative and high quality work is a high priority.”

“The knowledge and experience I have gained in one summer is incredible,” he said. “The agency’s client list is diverse and growing, which allowed me to work on a number of exciting projects in different industries.”

“We couldn’t have been happier to welcome Parker and Stefan,” Lynne Byles, Managing Director of Tower said. “Seeing young Caymanians studying in areas related to marketing is very exciting for us, and we are happy to support this however we can. We encourage aspiring marketers in Cayman to reach out to us for work experience or for any other ways we might be able to assist.”

Following its vision to nurture young Caymanians within the marketing profession, Tower plan to launch a formal internship program which will provide opportunities for vacation work as well as those studying locally.

“We have a wide range of interesting and varied roles for potential interns looking for a taste of communications and marketing,” Ms Byles said. “Developing, mentoring and training the best young Caymanian talent is a priority for us, and we look forward to providing genuine career pathways for those looking to enter the industry.”
