Marketing Intern for MATR Foods 

Sustainable food start-up in Nordhavn ready to start commercial scaling 

MATR Foods is a 2-year-old start-up on a mission to radically change the environmental impact of how we eat. We develop cutting-edge microbial solutions that allow us to transform local organic ingredients into delicious and nutritious food that is better for humans and the planet. We have launched our first line of products in branded partnerships with Gasoline Grill and Sticks'n’Sushi as well as in canteens and restaurants. We are now looking to start our production and commercial scaling and build a solid strategy for international expansion. 

The Role:  

If you are a natural communicator and creative content lover with a passion for sustainability and amazing food, you are just what we are looking for. In this role, you will support our marketing efforts by developing and implementing engaging social media campaigns. We are working event-based, with collaborations with great restaurants and people. But we are also looking to find good and engaging ways to talk about the issues of the broken food industry, the biodiversity crisis, the health crisis, and food waste that we are passionately building our business on. 

You will also be part of supporting our broader marketing strategy and preparing for our retail launch in Denmark. 

You will work closely with our marketing team to create content, manage social media platforms, interact with our online community, and analyze campaign performance. 

To support our mission we are looking for a 3-6 months, unpaid internship position full-time. 

As main tasks, you will: 

• Be part of further developing our brand communication strategy, tone of voice, and target groups 

• Assist in developing our retail launch campaign  

• Developing and executing social media marketing strategies and campaigns. 

• Create compelling content, including written posts, images, videos, and graphics, for various social media platforms. 

• Engage with our online community and respond to comments, messages, and inquiries in a timely and professional manner. 

• Monitor social media trends, analyze campaign performance, and provide actionable insights and recommendations. 

• Research and identify key influencers, bloggers, and online communities to engage with and expand our brand presence. 

• Design and conduct target group insight research and analysis 

The job is for you if ...  

• Currently pursuing a degree in marketing, communications, or a related field (or a recent graduate).

• Passionate about sustainability, healthy food, and making a positive impact. 

• Strong written and verbal as well as visual communication skills, with an ability to create engaging content. 

• Proficiency in using social media platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn.

• Creative mindset with an eye for design and storytelling. 

• Self-motivated and able to work independently, as well as collaboratively in a team environment. 

• Familiarity with sustainable food trends and knowledge of the social media landscape is a plus. 

Why you want to work with us: 

• No idea is a bad idea. We’ll happily encourage a partnership or collaboration if you have an idea or know anyone.  

• Autonomy – working in a small start you will have a great opportunity to do independent and impactful work. 

• You’ll be working out of our HQ, kitchen, and production facility in an area that has developed into an incubation hub for innovative food and beverage startups in Nordhavn. 

• We are a dynamic group of 15-20 people with more than 10 nationalities between us – and we don’t mind a good Friday drink now and again.
