*About the Role *

The Marketing Intern works directly with FIE’s Director of Marketing on live outreach campaigns.

Build targeted audience segments across dimensions such as academic discipline, program type, and concentration theme

Identify and verify the right contacts at target institutions, and assemble clean, well-structured lists

Validate data for accuracy and completeness before campaigns go out

1. Content and social media

Draft campaign copy — emails, landing-page blurbs, and calls to action — for the audiences you help define

Work with the marketing team to plan and write social content for Instagram, TikTok, and LinkedIn

1. Design

Create branded assets — social graphics and email visuals — using FIE’s brand guidelines

1. Signature Project

Contribute substantially to the development and delivery of a targeted marketing campaign, culminating in a portfolio-ready project that demonstrates audience research, content creation and campaign evaluation.

*Learning Outcomes *

Analyse and segment target audiences using demographic, academic and behavioural criteria

Apply principles of digital marketing to develop content tailored to specific audiences and channels

Demonstrate proficiency in the use of digital marketing tools and technologies to support campaign planning and delivery

Throughout the placement, the intern will receive regular mentorship, feedback and opportunities for reflection on their professional growth, marketing practice and career interests.
