Perlego Internship Programme 2026:
Our mission is to make learning accessible to all, so to help us achieve that goal, we are launching an internship programme, opening up opportunities for people who dream big and want to change the world.
We are looking for a Marketing and Social Media Intern to join our Marketing team. This is a role for someone who wants to spend their days creating content, building community, and helping people discover a genuine, human side of Perlego, not just posting on behalf of a brand, but showing the people and personality behind it.
The role is primarily focused on content creation, social media management, and community engagement, with the remaining time spent supporting the wider Marketing team, building real, hands-on experience across the marketing team
You'll be comfortable in front of the camera and behind the mic, quick to spot what's trending, and genuinely tuned into the internet and pop culture. We're looking for someone who truly enjoys social media, so the day-to-day feels less like a task list and more like something you're genuinely excited to do.
About Us:
Perlego is an edtech company on a mission to make learning more accessible, engaging, and effective. We build a digital product used by thousands of learners and educators across the world. We're a collaborative, curious team that genuinely cares about education and we'd love to welcome interns who do too.

-
