Job Description

We are a leading consultancy firm dedicated to solving the most complex problems partnering with top-tier organizations to drive sustainable impact. We believe in the power of knowledge and the art of communication to shape the future.

The Opportunity

We are looking for a dynamic, articulate, and creative Marketing, Knowledge & Communication (MKC) Intern to join our Nairobi office.

This is not just an administrative role; it is an opportunity to be at the heartbeat of our firm bridging the gap between our consulting teams and the market, helping to curate our intellectual property, manage our brand presence, and drive internal engagement.

Key Responsibilities

As an MKC Intern, you will rotate through three core pillars:

1. Marketing & Brand Visibility

  • Assist in the execution of the firm’s digital marketing strategy (LinkedIn, Website, and Twitter/X).
  • Draft engaging copy for thought leadership articles, press releases, and client newsletters.
  • Support the organization of high-profile client events, webinars, and roundtables.
  • Ensure all external materials align with our global brand guidelines.

2. Knowledge Management (KM)

  • Harvest and curate intellectual property (IP) from completed consulting projects (sanitizing data for confidentiality).
  • Organize and update the firm’s internal knowledge repository (Intranet/SharePoint) to ensure consultants have access to best-in-class tools.
  • Conduct quick-turnaround desk research to support business development proposals.

3. Internal Communication

  • Draft and design the weekly internal newsletter to keep staff connected and informed.
  • Support internal campaigns regarding diversity, corporate social responsibility (CSR), and staff wellbeing.
  • Assist in creating visual assets (presentations, infographics) for leadership town halls.

Requirements

  • Education: A Bachelor’s degree (completed or final year) in Marketing, Communications, Journalism, Business Administration, or a related field. 
  • Writing Skills: Exceptional command of written and spoken English. You must be able to synthesize complex business concepts into clear, compelling text.
  • Digital Fluency: Proficiency in Microsoft Office (PowerPoint, Word, Excel) is mandatory. Familiarity with design tools (Canva, Adobe Creative Cloud) or CMS platforms is a strong advantage.
  • Attitude: A self-starter with a high level of attention to detail and professional maturity.
  • Local Context: A solid understanding of the Kenyan and wider East African business landscape.
