**Join Vylor—Powering the Future of Agriculture** ​
At Vylor, we're advancing agriculture through breakthrough science—combining elite germplasm, cutting-edge biotech, and next-generation expertise in gene editing and molecular breeding.

Our portfolio includes trusted industry brands like Pioneer®, Brevant®, and Hoegemeyer®, delivering performance farmers rely on.​
Join us to help scale innovation globally and shape what's next in crop science.

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.

Use digital agronomy tools and mobile data platforms to capture and report field observations
**_Sales & Customer Support_**

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

**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

**_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
