Intern - Online marketing, communication and sustainability (8-12 weeks)

Is it important to you to make a difference? Do you want to work for a start-up purpose-driven company where you will be given responsibility? And do you dream of building a high level of professionalism and practical experience in online marketing, webshop, communication, CSR and sustainability?

... Then you should apply for an internship at Manelleh - right by Langebro and Islands Brygge.

What is Manelleh?

At Manelleh we sell interiors, accessories and gifts that are handmade by women. The purpose of the business is to make a difference for women around the world. All products are made by social fair trade companies. Every time you buy a product, you contribute to more women having proper, meaningful and dignified jobs.

At Manelleh we value craft traditions, unique and personal products that take time to make. We strive to sell products that harm the environment as little as possible. We prefer to work with materials that are upcycled, recycled and organic and that can last for many years into the future

The core of our business is that we work closely with all our business partners around the world. That way, we know how each individual product is made, who it is made by, and what the women are paid. And thus we ensure that the women have a responsible salary level and a proper working environment.

Whos behind?

My name is Maria Manel Bøge, and I am the founder of Manelleh.

I have 20 years of experience in working with communication, strategy and sustainability. I have previously been a manager in large international companies (e.g. ISS), a startup, a research center (KVINFO) and an NGO (Save the Children). For a period I was Director of the CSR Foundation, whose purpose was to put CSR and sustainability on the agenda - nationally and globally.

I have a master's degree in communication from Aalborg University (2006), and in 2020 I completed an MBA at Henley Business School. Alongside Manelleh, I am a board member of GAME, an award-winning international NGO. Finally, I am part of the jury behind the FINANCE IMPACT Awards.

What can Manelleh offer?

I can promise you that you will learn a lot during your internship. During your internship, it will primarily be you and me who will work together - and you will be given fun, quirky and challenging tasks - all related to creating value for a purpose-driven company. You will also get to work with another intern, freelancers and an external marketing agency.

I have my studio centrally located right by Langebro and Islands Brygge. The studio is approx. 300 m2 and consists of showroom, office and warehouse. A few times a month it is open for customers to come and shop physically in our showroom.

During the internship period, we take possibly a trip to Bangladesh and visit the organizations I collaborate with. Here we meet the women who make products for Manelleh, we create a lot of content and order new products. Here you will have an experience of a lifetime. The trip is paid for by Manelleh, as part of your internship.

What will you do during your internship?

Your primary task will be:

• To contribute to and rethink the company's communication and branding on social media
• To prepare content for the company website & social media – in images, sound and video
• To contribute to 1 campaigns from idea to execution
• To plan 1 physical event with a focus on responsible and sustainable production
• To contribute to further development online-the business (webshop in Shopify)

In addition, you must participate in everything that you want, e.g. further developing the business, designing new products, collaborating with existing partners in Bangladesh, doing and gaining an understanding of accounting.

… And the most important thing is actually your personality, your mindset and your approach to things.
