We’re 50|50 tech and marketing, partner-led, and first to move. Clients include Google, Lufthansa, Meta, eBay, and OpenAI. We have been certified B Corp and Climate Neutral since 2021.

This role sits within our Social & In-house Production practice in the Netherlands. We are the driving force behind the fast-moving social content and in-house campaigns we execute for our clients, bringing creative ideas to life from concept to final asset.

JOB PURPOSE

Looking to kick off your career in the fast-paced world of social production? During this internship, you’ll join our production team and get hands-on experience in setting up, coordinating, and executing social-first shoots and campaigns. We’ll give you all the guidance, feedback, GIFs, and high fives you need to grow into a Social Producer.

As an Intern Social Producer, you will work shoulder-to-shoulder with our (social) creatives, editors, producer, and social media managers. You’ll learn how to translate creative concepts into actionable production plans, manage talent and crew, and ensure every piece of content, from quick TikToks to recurring video series, runs smoothly, stays on schedule, and meets high-quality standards.

From day one, you’ll be paired with a dedicated mentor for 1-on-1 coaching and join a passionate team always ready to help. By the end of your internship, you’ll have gained real production experience, worked on shoots for A-list clients, and built a solid foundation for a career in social and content production.

Note: to be eligible for this internship, you are required to be living and studying in the Netherlands and be fluent in Dutch.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

• Support end-to-end productions: Assist producers, creatives and social media managers in executing social-first shoots, ongoing content series, and internal productions from prep to delivery.
• Production planning & coordination: Help translate creative ideas into concrete production assets, including call sheets, production schedules, shotlists, equipment prep, and crew planning.
• Crew & talent management: Assist in scheduling and communicating with internal and external talent pools, including directors, DPs, editors, stylists, photographers, and creators.
• Platform-first execution: Learn platform-specific technical standards (TikTok, Instagram, YouTube) to ensure all produced assets fit the correct formats and specs.
• Cross-team collaboration: Work closely with social creatives, video editors, and project managers to keep projects running efficiently and on track.
• Set support: Be an active hand on shoot days, ensuring logistics run seamlessly, talent is taken care of, and call sheets are followed.
• Process optimization: Help maintain our internal production databases, asset organization, and workflow templates to keep the team structured and organized.

• A natural organizer who thrives on structure, clarity, and keeping things running smoothly in a creative environment.
