Job description

We are looking for a motivated marketing professional to join our team as a trainee. This role is grounded in events support but extends across the broader marketing function -- from copy assistance to social media support to administrative coordination. The right person is someone who takes initiative, works well across teams, and is ready to learn fast in a hands-on environment.

Key Duties and Responsibilities:

• Events support - Assist the Events Lead in coordinating logistics, vendor communication, attendee management, and documentation for Open iT's events program. Maintain trackers and action logs throughout the event lifecycle, from planning through post-event reporting.
• Content and copy assistance - Draft event-related copy (invitations, confirmations, follow-up emails) and support the Content team with basic copywriting tasks as needed. All output reviewed and approved before use.
• Social media assistance - Support the Social Media team with scheduling, posting, and community monitoring tasks. No independent publishing -- all posts go through the designated SP owner before going live.
• Administrative and cross-team support - Coordinate between design, web, and content teams on marketing deliverables. Maintaining documentation, flag dependencies early, and ensure nothing falls through the cracks across active workstreams.

Required Qualifications:

• At least 1 year of professional experience in marketing, communications, events, or related field -- fresh graduates with strong internship or org experience are considered
• Organized and detail-oriented -- can managed multiple moving parts without losing track
• Proactive communicator -- flags issues before they escalate, coordinates actively with the team
• Basic writing skills in English -- clear, structured, and professional
• Willingness to learn and take on tasks across different marketing functions

Preferred Qualifications:

• Prior experience in B2B marketing, events coordination, or executive facing communications
• Familiarity with project tracking tools (Notion, Trello, spreadsheets)
• Basic social media platform knowledge (LinkedIn, Facebook)
• AI workflow familiarity (Claude or similar tools)

Growth Path

This role is designed as an entry point into the Open iT marketing team. Strong performers are considered for absorption as a full Marketing Associate -- with the opportunity to grow towards events ownership and broader marketing responsibilities overtime.
