Social Media & Mobilisation Internship

Do you have skills and passion for communication and the ability to think creatively? Are you eager to make the world a fairer place and have an understanding of how digital tools can help create change and influence debates? If so, then you might be the one we’re looking for to join our Digital Unit for internship in Stockholm office!

You’ll use digital tools like Facebook, Twitter and email to communicate about Greenpeace’s work to both current and potential supporters. You will create engaging texts that will inspire people to sign our petitions, attend our events or share our articles.

Your day-to-day could mean posting on social media, getting stuck-in with discussions about our campaigns, making macros, translating or writing supporter emails or studying social media trends. Lots of this would depend on your interests or current skills.

You will work on a whole range of topics - whether it’s about protecting oceans from plastic pollution, saving forests from destruction, or stopping our pension from being invested into the climate change.
