Social Media Intern Us

Your role at Tony's

Tony’s Chocolonely was founded in 2005 by journalists who discovered that major chocolate manufacturers source cocoa made with modern slavery and illegal child labor. Our vision is chocolate that is 100% free from exploitation. Not just our chocolate, but all chocolate worldwide. Not exactly your average company, right? We are an impact company that makes chocolate, and we are changing the industry from within.

From our office in New York City, we manage Tony’s business throughout the United States. Starting in June 2023, we are looking for a marketing intern to join us in our New York City office a few days a week and help amplify our impact. You’ll learn how a social impact company shares their product and story across every business touchpoint by taking on tasks including marketing and communications, content creation, social media management, partner relations, lending a hand in administrative tasks and planning and implementing your own projects.

What You Will Do

• Ideating on omni channel campaigns: You’ll support the end-to-end process of the launch of new digital campaigns from brainstorming ideas to the launch in the US market, with a specific emphasis on building a success story on TikTok.
• PR Support: You’ll join our PR calls to stay in the loop on all relevant marketing activities, and propose new and exciting ways of leveraging our media activities on social media and vice versa.
• Tracking the numbers: You don’t just obsessively track relevant project data, you also read the data you collect like a book. A really good book! You find the best insights in the data to propel our digital marketing and social media presence forward.
• Connecting with Serious Friends: You know how to make new friends and you can’t get enough of doing it. You will work closely with our Community Manager to proactively spot and engage with likeminded digital influencers and business partners to bring them into our circle. Bonus points for influencers and partners on TikTok!
• Content creation: We’ve got goals, big ones like becoming the #1 choco impact brand! You’ve got ideas on how to get us there, lots of ‘em too! With those ideas, you’ll support the production and preparation of content, both visual and written across our key channels: TikTok and Instagram.
• Partnership Support: We can’t reach our mission alone, we need the best partners to get there! You’ll support our Director of Partnerships in ideating on creative and effective ways to amplify our partnerships online across key channels like TikTok.
• Documenting: We wanna see the world through your eyes! You’ll help us get a 360 view on Tony’s online presence by keeping files up to date and sharing info with the right business partners. Piece of (chocolate) cake!
