mFCG Program
Now that you've completed your summer internship, it's time to consider what a career at Ford Motor Company could look like. Joining the mFCG program means you will be part of a network of talented marketers honing their craft. The 5-6 year rotational program allows you to chart your own course. Each rotation is approximately two years and could be in the following areas:
- Product Marketing - As the voice of the customer during new vehicle development, product marketers work with Design, Finance and Engineering to guide initial product strategy and ensure the wants and needs of our target customers are addressed in product development, positioning and market research.
- Consumer Marketing - Consumer marketers coordinate all marketing for retail and fleet products and new vehicle launches. Responsible for achieving sales, profit and brand health targets, this team is involved in vehicle and option mix, pricing, manufacturing, allocation and dealer training. They also help to ensure consistent messaging in all consumer touchpoints.
- Consumer Experience - The customer experience is so important as Ford works to become the world's most trusted company. Improving and rewarding customer loyalty and saving customers time on maintenance are some of the many ongoing projects in CX.
- Digital Marketing - As customers continue to spend more time on their smart phone and consume content online, Ford has to rethink how to capture share of mind of our consumers. From working on our websites to investigating ecommerce platforms, digital marketing is an exciting and challenging rotation at Ford.
- Services Marketing - Delivering human-centered, connected experiences alongside intelligent vehicles is the focus of our team. Leveraging the consumer, the vehicle and Ford's infrastructure, we bring these experiences to market.
- Zone Manager - Ford prides itself on a strong relationship with its 3,000+ dealers, all of whom are independent community business leaders. In the field, mFCGs gain insight into how dealers view the business and how consumers make purchase decisions.
- Elective Areas - No two paths in our program are identical. Working with your mentor and network, you can explore various areas of our business that interest you.
When you ask a Ford coworker, "Why Ford?" the first thing they will likely tell you is the people. At Ford, we care for each other. We treat each other and our customers like Family.
