Working Student / Intern: Content & Social Media Management

Duration: 6 months

Hours: approx. 20 hours/week as a working student or as agreed for an internship

Focus: Developing a consistent, authentic digital communication strategy for international young professionals

An international master’s program is about more than just lectures and exams: People come to Berlin from all over the world, bringing professional experience and diverse perspectives with them, and use this as a springboard to further their international careers.

We want to bring these stories to light, and that’s why we’re looking for you.

At GPE, you’ll have the freedom to develop your own content ideas, work with students and alumni, and experiment with new formats for LinkedIn, Instagram, and our other communication channels. Whether it’s an alumni story, a Reel, an interview, a student takeover, or an entirely new format: We want to create content that authentically shows what it’s really like to study at GPE and be part of our international community.
