Social Media Marketing Intern / OJT

Practise planning a short sequence of social posts around one audience and message. You will draft captions, prepare creative requests and learn to read campaign metrics without jumping to unsupported conclusions.

What you will practise

• Research audience questions and turn them into a small content plan for review.
• Use sample or approved metrics to compare posts and suggest one change to the next draft.

What you will learn

• Learn to connect an audience and campaign message to content choices, publishing checks, and useful reporting.
• Document your work, respond to feedback, and explain what is ready for review and what still needs help.

What you should bring

• Familiarity with social platforms, clear writing, and basic spreadsheet skills. Personal or school campaign examples are welcome.
• Willingness to ask questions, keep clear notes, and revise work after feedback. Professional experience is not required.

Examples of work in this role

• A practice calendar with captions and creative notes.
• A short observation report explaining the metric used and its limitations.

Working arrangements

• Keep progress, questions, and blockers visible through the agreed communication channels.
• Availability, working hours, equipment needs, and any location eligibility requirements will be discussed during recruitment.
• Training tasks require review. Supervision, school requirements, training hours, start date, and any allowance must be agreed before the placement begins.
• Live systems, publishing, and client commitments require authorisation. Begin with practice environments or reviewed drafts appropriate to the task.

What to include in your application

• Use the application form and include your CV, availability, and a short explanation of why this work interests you.
• Include a school or personal project where possible. If this is a school OJT placement, state your course, required hours, intended dates, and any school documentation requirements.
• Share a personal or school content example and describe the audience, message and part you created.
• Share only work you have permission to disclose. A redacted sample or a clear explanation is fine when client work is confidential.
