Passionate Academics are the Future - but 1 in 5 academic does not have a job 1 year after graduation and 1 in 6 is working in a job they are overqualified for. That's straight-up just not good enough. Too many bright graduates are not achieving their dreams, but we are here to make it happen. Therefore, we have built a platform where students can list their master thesis topic and companies can find the right student group for the perfect thesis collaboration match.

Current status

Excelerate is in the very early days of the startup journey.

We have just launched the site (a month ago) which we are very excited about :)

We have a great marketing team focusing on social media and offline marketing, however, we are in need of someone to up our PR / Partnership game.

You get the chance to join a startup from the very early days and that also implies that you will get a lot of responsibility.

The Excelerate team

We are 2 co-founders and 4 employees.

We are looking for

A PR / Copy writer / Partnership intern

• Responsible for our PR

• Co-create and execute our PR strategy

• Prepare and write our PR content / Media kit

• Find and engage with the right media / bloggers / influencers

• Create and maintain the content partnerships

Core skills needed

• Very high level of written English (platform communication is in English)

• Intermediate understanding of PR / Preferable already a network of sources (media/bloggers/influencers we potentially could work with

• Basic understanding of Social media (either from school or from a previous job)

To start in November

We are looking for someone who is hungry/eager to join Excelerate, who thinks the mission sounds amazing. You are excited to join a startup with all the freedom and responsibilities and hard work that comes along with it.

English language is a requirement, as we predominately speak English at the office, but we couldn't care less about nationality/gender/age. It's all about personality and the fit between us.

If this has piqued your interest I suggest we take an informal cup of coffee where you can hear more about my thoughts and company.

We are currently working out of Copenhagen, Strandlodsvej 44, 3 sal (a Co-working space), we would expect you to be working from this location as well.

Thanks for reading this far :)
