About GenieHive

GenieHive is a global marketplace connecting African talent to businesses across Africa, North America, and Europe. We help companies discover, hire, and work with vetted professionals across creative, tech, and professional services—unlocking African excellence for global impact.

As we scale client acquisition across key markets, we are looking for two Growth Marketing Interns to support demand generation, outbound campaigns, partnerships, and content-led growth.

Role Overview

As a Growth Marketing Intern, you will work closely with the Growth and Partnerships team to drive client acquisition and pipeline growth in either Nigeria or North America. This role is hands-on, data-informed, and ideal for someone looking to build real-world experience in B2B growth marketing, sales enablement, and market expansion.

Each intern will have a primary regional focus, but will collaborate on global initiatives.

Key Responsibilities

Client Acquisition & Lead Generation

  • Research and identify target companies and decision-makers within assigned markets
  • Support outbound campaigns (email, LinkedIn, partnerships, communities)
  • Help build and maintain lead lists and CRM records
  • Qualify inbound and outbound leads using defined criteria

Growth Campaigns & Experiments

  • Assist in planning and executing growth experiments across channels.
  • Track campaign performance and document learnings.
  • Support market-specific messaging and positioning.

Content & Brand Support

  • Assist with growth-oriented content (LinkedIn posts, case studies, landing pages, email copy)
  • Localize messaging for Nigerian and North American audiences
  • Support brand storytelling and founder-led growth initiatives

Partnerships & Ecosystem Engagement

  • Research potential partners (accelerators, communities, agencies, platforms)
  • Support outreach and coordination for co-marketing or referral opportunities

Reporting & Insights

  • Track weekly growth metrics (leads, responses, conversions)
  • Prepare simple reports and insights for internal reviews

What We’re Looking For

Required

  • Strong interest in growth marketing, startups, or B2B sales
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Comfortable with research, outreach, and experimentation
  • Ability to work independently in a remote environment
  • Strong attention to detail and follow-through

Nice to Have

  • Experience with LinkedIn, email outreach, or CRM tools
  • Basic understanding of funnels, lead generation, or digital marketing
  • Familiarity with African talent markets, freelancing, or global work platforms
  • Background in marketing, communications, business, or related fields

What You’ll Gain

  • Hands-on experience driving real client acquisition in live markets
  • Exposure to cross-border growth strategy (Africa ↔ North America)
  • Mentorship from a senior leadership team with global experience
  • A strong portfolio of measurable growth outcomes
  • Potential pathway to a full-time role or long-term collaboration

Compensation

  • Monthly stipend (country-adjusted)
  • Performance-based bonuses (where applicable)
