About the Internship
You鈥檒l be joining our marketing function at a pivotal moment: an established, loved brand with huge potential for growth across the world. This is a generalist marketing internship by design. You鈥檒l get real exposure across content, social, events, and operations, not just one narrow slice.
Where exactly you spend your time will depend on who you are. Finding the right match in attitude, mindset, and ambition is far more to us than ticking a checklist. We鈥檒l build the focus around where you shine.
What ties it all together: you鈥檒l be doing real work, as a real part of the team, pointed at real commercial goals and you鈥檙e not afraid to get stuff done.
Areas of work Depending on your profile and where you add most value, your work could include:
-
Writing content: blog posts, case studies, school-facing copy, and email campaigns that actually get read
-
**Supporting events: **helping plan and coordinate conferences, webinars, and school-facing activations
-
**Using the latest AI tools **to raise the speed and quality of our marketing output, from smarter research and sharper copy to more creative campaigns and scalable processes
-
Contributing to email marketing via HubSpot: campaign builds, nurture sequences, and audience segmentation
-
**Carrying out market and competitor research: **tracking what鈥檚 resonating in IB and edtech, and feeding insights back to the team
-
Running our social media presence across channels, from scheduling and community engagement to tracking what lands and iterating
-
**Design support: **social assets, one-pagers, and decks, if that鈥檚 a strength you bring
Who you are

-

-
**You bring your full self to work. **No performance, no politics, just honest effort.
