Team’s mission:
The Growth team at Upvest is driving our go-to-market activities, spanning across Marketing, Sales, and Customer Success. Our mission is to become the Investment-as-a-Service category leader for Europe's leading brokers, banks, wealth managers, and non-financial platforms.

This role will give you the opportunity to:
Contribute to the evolution of our Growth team by bringing your knowledge and passion to support our marketing efforts in the upcoming months, and potentially beyond:

Product marketing: Collaborate with Product and support in planning and executing product marketing campaigns that educate our prospects and create demand. Ensure the content aligns with key messaging and market and industry interests and trends.
PR: Support in launching new PR initiatives about upcoming and existing partnerships. Increase Upvest’s brand visibility by identifying and organising media appearances.
Events: Identify relevant events and conferences and procure speaking slots or other collaboration opportunities. Organise and assist with small-scale events.
Brand expression: Help us ensure that our visual expression matches the ambition of our positioning across all channels.
Category development: Support us in bringing the Investment API category to life by transforming the narrative across all our external touch points. Assist in defining themes, value propositions, and unique selling points of the platform.

We take hiring seriously and keep the bar high when interviewing. We hire talents who are passionate about their craft and excited to help achieve our shared mission.
We are a hybrid employer and committed to flexibility as we understand you don't have to be in the office at all times to do your best work.
We live a culture of empowerment and trust (that we hire the best people and get out of their way) as well as openness (there's a greater advantage in sharing information than keeping it to ourselves).
Last but not least, we take time to have fun as a team with regular team dinners, group events, or occasional celebrations (as the situation allows).
Opportunity to extend your internship towards a working student or permanent role, depending on the outcome of the internship.
Our values:
Learn and grow. We aim high to shape our future. We give and request honest feedback knowing that we develop together. Progression over Perfection.
Team first. We make it easy for others. We value our differences and are open to others' opinions. We win and celebrate together! Team over Egos.
Own the outcome. Whether we win or we lose, we stand together. We are proactive and get the job done. Outcome over Process.
Tell the story. We always start with the why. We share knowledge to empower others. Transparency over Complexity.
Upvest is an equal-opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees
