Paid Intern For Social Media Campaign

Job Title: Remote Social Media Manager (Off-Grid Energy Campaign)
Location: Remote or London Office (US or UK-based preferred, but open)
Type: Freelance/Part-Time with opportunity to grow
Salary: £10 per hour plus expenses

Apply via: nick@off-grid.net

✊ About the Role:

Are you a whip-smart, creative, and fast-moving social media expert who knows your TikToks from your TED Talks, your Reels from your renewables?

We’re looking for a Remote Social Media Manager to drive the digital campaign for a large-scale rollout of small-scale energy in the UK – part of a growing movement to decentralise power (literally and metaphorically).

You’ll be working closely with Nick Rosen, founder of Off-Grid.net, author of How to Live Off-Grid, and longtime campaigner for energy independence and off-grid living. Your task? Help make distributed energy as viral as cat memes and as urgent as a blackout.

This isn’t just a job – it’s a media insurgency.

📲 Platforms You’ll Manage:

• LinkedIn

• Instagram

• Facebook

• TikTok

• YouTube

• X (Twitter)

• Amazon Influencer page

• Off-Grid web store
• Reddit
• Discord

• Plus: our content hub at linktr.ee/offgridnet

🧠 You MUST Have:

• Serious experience in social media & e-commerce: Ideally for campaigns, lifestyle brands, or advocacy projects.

• An intuitive understanding of the electricity industry – from Eskom’s load shedding to National Grid’s polite chaos. You’ll need to speak fluently about off-grid energy systems, decentralised tech, and solar-powered sanity.

• A nose for narrative: You know how to turn policy into punchlines, and engineering into engagement.

• A high output capacity: Quality is vital, but so is speed. You can produce content daily without falling into a puddle.

• Creative independence: You won’t be micro-managed. We want someone who can lead digital strategy and content creation with intelligence and initiative.

💡 What You’ll Be Doing:

• Develop and implement a cross-platform content strategy to build a movement for small-scale energy solutions in the UK.

• Create original, engaging content (video, graphics, carousels, infographics, threads, Reels, TikToks, etc.).

• Grow followers and increase engagement – not just vanity metrics, but actual community-building.

• Tie e-commerce strategy into the content funnel, including the Amazon influencer page.

• Work with Nick to craft a media voice that’s bold, informed, funny, and rebellious – think Private Eye meets Permaculture Now.

• Monitor trends, adapt strategy, and tweak content in real-time to respond to both cultural and electrical storms.

⚡️ Bonus Points For:

• Video editing & on-camera skills

• Familiarity with YouTube growth tactics

• Previous work with energy brands, NGOs, or off-grid tech

• Experience turning media into revenue (e.g. affiliate links, influencer funnels, paid partnerships)

🚀 This Job is For You If:

• You’re not afraid to take a stance – on policy or aesthetics.

• You believe decentralisation is more than just a buzzword.

• You can write like a human and post like a machine.

• You’re looking to be part of a purpose-driven project with impact.

To apply, send us:

• Links to your previous work

• A short cover letter (or video intro) telling us why you’re right for this role

• Your availability and expected rate

Let’s build a movement that makes energy local, media meaningful, and independence mainstream.
