Intern, Employer Branding and Recruitment Marketing
Get to Know the Team
At Grab, the Employer Branding and Recruitment Marketing team helps talent discover and choose careers with us. We create campaigns, content, and candidate experiences across Southeast Asia—from LinkedIn and talent newsletters to our careers site and recruitment efforts.
Working with recruiting teams across the region, we bring our Employer Value Proposition to life through data-informed, human-centred work.

You will support content, campaigns, and insights that help Grab attract talent across Southeast Asia.
This role is for someone curious about brand storytelling, talent marketing, and how data turns content into results. You will build practical experience, a portfolio, and a network—rather useful things to leave with, unlike another decorative certificate.

- You will track campaign performance using UTM links, LinkedIn, and Google Analytics, and compile regular reports.
- You will coordinate content operations, communicate with teams and partners, and the content asset library.
- You will support flagship campaigns and Campus Engagement & Recruitment activities through event coordination, content sourcing, copywriting, and community engagement.
- You will use AI tools to improve content quality, research, and workflows.
What Essential Skills You Will Need
- Bachelor's degree in Marketing, Communications, Business, Journalism, Digital Media, or a related field.
- You will need to start the internship in Oct 2026 with a minimum duration of 6 months.
- You will need to be proficient in English, with the ability to create clear, engaging, on-brand content.
- You will need to be comfortable using Canva, Google Workspace, LinkedIn, and other social media platforms.
- You will need to be familiar with AI tools, and able to use them to improve productivity, workflows, and ideas.
- You will need to have a genuine interest in employer branding, talent marketing, content strategy, and what influences career choices.
- You will need to have some exposure—through coursework or experience—to digital marketing, content creation, social media management, web analytics, content management, email marketing, or candidate relationship management tools.
- You will need to have basic experience supporting video or multimedia projects, including asset management and vendor briefs.

Meet our Intern Alumni
Our internship programme isn't just a glimpse into the professional world; it's a hands-on adventure. As an intern, you're involved in work that's beyond the mundane – you're tackling real projects alongside talented teams. We believe in learning by doing, and our interns experience just that.
My journey started as an intern, diving into the nuanced world of UX writing. It's not just about crafting error messages, but more about shaping a narrative that enhances the user experience. Thanks to the trust and support of my amazing manager and brilliant mentors, I have the opportunity to make an impact on my community with Grab — full-time! I start each day excited to continue learning and growing, alongside the remarkable people here at Grab!

The learning curve has been steep and gratifying. Transitioning from intern to full-time has proven challenging, but my team has been helpful with their continued guidance in my initial days. We, at Grab not only dedicate ourselves to innovation at work but also to building culture. Weekly board games, bi-annual team retreats and a quick chat over lunch have been central to my experience here. The culture encourages you to be great at your work and to be the best version of yourself outside it.

My internship experience at Grab was truly captivating. I had interned at other organisations before Grab. However, interning at Grab revealed that I wished to experience exciting, meaningful work and a warm and friendly culture. During my internship, I discovered my liking for backend engineering. After interning for 3 months, I returned to school and applied for a full-time role with the same team. Today, I’ve been with Grab for almost 2 years, and I am still grateful for accepting the internship offer letter, 3 years ago.
