Metana
Internship54 Ananda Coomaraswamy Mawatha, Colombo 00300, Sri LankaLKR 40,000 - 45,000/month

Job Role

We're looking for a Social Media & Community Intern who lives and breathes content, community, and the internet. You’ll help shape how Metana shows up across platforms and engages our fast-growing global audience. This is a hands-on, high-impact role where you'll create content that aligns with our three content pillars:

  1. Storytelling – Highlighting student journeys, alumni successes, mentor spotlights, behind-the-scenes looks, and the evolution of Metana’s mission.
  2. Full-Funnel Engagement – Creating content tailored to different stages of the learner journey—from awareness and education to decision-making and retention.
  3. Partnerships & Community – Amplifying our collaborations and nurturing our vibrant community through interactive, human-first content.

What You'll Do

  • Content Creation: Create scroll-stopping content ideas (posts, stories, reels, threads, etc.) for platforms like Twitter/X, LinkedIn, Instagram & TikTok. The ability to use design tools to create the actual creatives is a big plus, but not a must.
  • Community Engagement: Work alongside our Content & Community Lead to create marketing communications & social content plans for our community activations & events.
  • Editorial Calendar: Assist in planning and executing a content calendar aligned with product launches, student milestones, and partner activations.
  • Social Listening: Monitor trends, memes, and conversations relevant to tech, education, and Web3. Contribute to a responsive, timely content strategy.
  • Analytics & Learning: Track engagement metrics and community feedback to improve strategy and content performance.
  • Partnership Support: Collaborate with partners and creators to co-create campaigns and promote shared initiatives.

You Might Be a Fit If You...

  • Are a strong storyteller with an eye for what resonates online.
  • Love experimenting with different formats—video, memes, carousels, threads, etc.
  • Understand the social media landscape and have experience managing or growing online communities.
  • Are plugged into tech, startups, Web3, and/or online education.
  • Are a fast learner, highly organized, and detail-oriented.
  • Can work independently but love collaborating with a small, fast-moving team.

What You’ll Gain

  • Real-world experience in a fast-growing startup
  • Mentorship from experienced marketers and community builders
  • Portfolio-worthy content and campaigns
  • Flexible remote work and a culture of creativity and autonomy
  • A front-row seat to the future of online education
