🏢 About Sistema.bio

Sistema.bio is a social enterprise that turns agricultural waste into renewable energy and organic fertilizer, directly combating climate change while empowering rural communities. Working here means joining a mission-driven team that combines sustainability with innovation, offering a unique chance to contribute to global environmental impact.

About This Role

As a Marketing & Communication intern, you'll manage social media channels, create compelling visual and editorial content, and support digital campaigns across multicultural teams.

💡 A Day in the Life

You might start by reviewing social media analytics and scheduling posts for the week using Meta Business Suite. Then, you could draft a short video script for TikTok about a farmer's success story, edit it in CapCut, and collaborate with the team on a new campaign graphic in Canva. Afternoon could involve researching trending sustainability topics to inform next month's content calendar.

  • A current student in Communications, Marketing, Advertising, Design, or a related field, with a passion for sustainability and social impact.
  • Someone with basic social media management skills and strong writing ability, eager to craft stories around renewable energy and rural development.
  • A creative self-starter who can design graphics using Canva or similar tools, and is comfortable with video editing apps like CapCut.
  • A team player who thrives in multicultural environments and is curious about digital advertising platforms like Meta Business Suite or TikTok Ads.
