Mandatory internship performance marketing and social media

VAERM is a young brand on a mission to redefine warmth.

We sell direct-to-consumer across Europe and are growing fast, with more than 10,000 orders so far. Now we're looking for someone who wants to help build a brand from the ground up, with real responsibility from day one. Tasks • Plan, launch, and optimize paid campaigns on Meta (Instagram & Facebook) and other channels, from targeting and budgets to A/B tests and reporting. • Create ad creatives, including short-form video, static ads, and UGC-style content, and iterate based on performance data. • Support media buying decisions and analyze KPIs such as ROAS, CPA, and CTR. • Manage our Instagram presence: content planning, posting, community management, and trend scouting. • Source, brief, and manage creators and influencers, and coordinate brand collaborations. • Contribute your own ideas on how VAERM should look, sound, and grow.

Nice to have • First experience with Meta Ads Manager or other ad platforms. • Video editing skills (e.g. CapCut, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve). • Hands-on experience with Instagram growth, content creation, or influencer marketing. • Familiarity with Shopify or e-commerce analytics.
