Pioneer is seeking two motivated students to join our Prairie East team in Manitoba for a summer internship that blends hands‑on agronomy with commercial sales exposure. You will work alongside Territory Managers, Field Agronomists, and our network of Pioneer Seed Sales Representatives, spending the majority of your summer in growers’ fields across Manitoba. This is a practical, in‑field role: you will see the full crop season — from post‑emergence scouting through pre‑harvest evaluation — while learning how agronomic insight drives product placement and customer relationships in Western Canada.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

Agronomy

• Scout corn, soybean, canola, and sunflower fields for weeds, insects, disease, and abiotic stress
• Establish, maintain, and collect data from on‑farm trials, strip plots, and product demonstration sites
• Support plot staking, stand counts, tissue/soil sampling, and harvest data collection
• Use digital agronomy tools and mobile data platforms to capture and report field observations

Sales & Customer Support

• Accompany Territory Managers and Pioneer sales reps on grower calls and farm visits
• Prepare product positioning materials, local trial summaries, and season‑end grower reports
• Assist with summer plot tours, field days, and customer events across the Prairie East geography
• Contribute competitive intelligence and local market observations

Project Work

• Complete a defined summer project and present findings to the Prairie East leadership team at end of term

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

Required

• Enrolled in a post‑secondary program in Agriculture, Agronomy, Crop Science, Plant Science, Agribusiness, or related field, returning to studies in Fall 2027
• Valid driver’s license and clean driving record — significant daily territory driving is part of the role
• Legally eligible to work in Canada for the full summer term
• Comfortable working outdoors in variable Prairie conditions, including early mornings and occasional long days
• Strong communication skills and genuine interest in working directly with farm customers

Preferred

• Farm background or prior agronomy, ag‑retail, or field research experience
• Familiarity with Western Canadian cropping systems (corn, soybeans, canola, sunflowers)
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office and comfort using mobile field data applications
• Self‑directed and organized — able to manage a work plan with limited day‑to‑day supervision

WHAT WE OFFER

• Competitive hourly wage with company provided vehicle for territory travel
• Safety gear, technology, and field equipment provided
• Structured onboarding, agronomy training, and mentorship from experienced Pioneer professionals
• Direct exposure to the Pioneer sales model and a strong pipeline toward full‑time roles after graduation
