Internship, Social Media, Benelux team (Dutch speaking)

Job description

Tony’s Chocolonely is committed to ending exploitation in cocoa. The company is an impact company that makes chocolate, not a chocolate company that makes an impact. With incredibly tasty chocolate, it leads by example, demonstrating that ethical practices and success can go hand in hand. Through Tony's Open Chain (TOC), mission allies like Albert Heijn, Ben & Jerry's, Jokolade, and Aldi have embraced a fairer, more transparent supply chain for their chocolate.

Tony’s Chocolonely is looking for a Social Media Intern to join the Benelux team in Amsterdam. This internship offers a unique opportunity to gain hands-on marketing and communications experience in a growing impact company, while making a significant positive impact in the world of cocoa.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

• How to support the social team by developing creative, high-impact content ideas, keeping the content calendar up to date, and producing channel-appropriate posts and videos.
• How to build hands-on skills in video editing (Premiere Pro, CapCut) and visual design (Photoshop, Canva), and learn to write captions and scripts in Tony’s tone of voice.
• How to develop strong community-management skills by actively engaging with chocofans, responding to comments, spotting influencer opportunities, and helping maintain a fun, positive, and mission-driven presence across all NL social channels.
• How to collaborate with internal and external partners — from Creative to Chocofancare — to support smooth and efficient content production, coordinating logistics, props, shoots, and deliverables.

Here’s what you’ll do:

• Translate social and brand activities into impactful, creative, and channel-first content for owned platforms.
• Produce engaging social videos and visual assets that support communication objectives in the Benelux, and sometimes beyond.
• Prepare and support shoots by arranging props, coordinating logistics, and assisting on set when needed.
• Write social copy that brings the mission to life in a fun, accessible, and engaging way.
• Manage social communities by responding to comments, identifying opportunities for influencer PR, and helping strengthen relationships with chocofans.
• Collaborate with Marketing, Creative, and Chocofancare to ensure smooth content creation and consistent messaging across channels.

Job requirements:

• You’re studying for a relevant HBO/university degree, such as communications, marketing, media, or creative business, and looking to gain practical experience in a real-life social media and communications environment.
• Raise the bar. Challenge yourself and team Tony’s to increase ambition and accomplish the mission. Make mistakes along the way and learn from them.
• Believe wholeheartedly in Tony’s mission. You live the core values: Outspoken, In it together, Makes you smile, Entrepreneurial, and Raise the bar.
• You’re creative, social-savvy, and excited to make content that inspires, engages, and builds brand love.

Here are the hard facts:

• Starting on September 1st, you’ll be part of Tony's team for 6 months.
• The team values being more in person than apart; this means flexibility is offered, with an average of 3 days a week in the Amsterdam office.
• You’ll be living in the Netherlands and enrolled in a school for the duration of the internship.

Here's what you can expect from us:

• You’ll be part of an enthusiastic team of driven colleagues who share your love for Tony’s and the commitment to its mission.
• As an intern, you’ll have the opportunity to directly contribute to the success of Tony’s Chocolonely and be challenged to raise the bar and make a real impact in the world.
• Our office in Amsterdam Houthavens offers a fresh and tasty lunch, plenty of snacks, and of course, you get to take home as much chocolate as you can carry.
