Perlego 6 month Internship Programme 2023
Our mission is to make learning accessible to all, so to help us achieve that goal we are launching an internship programme, opening up opportunities for people who dream big and want to change the world.
We’re not looking for someone with a specific degree or years of experience - you might be someone looking for a total career change, a recent graduate or someone who just wants to dive into something new and make an impact.
What we’re looking for is someone who cares about our mission and wants to make a real impact on the world of education and has an appetite to learn.
What you’ll get:

Here, you can become your best self, and through your talent, make a real impact in the world of education.
The numbers speak for themselves:

What you’ll learn
At Perlego, there are over 100 of us working hard to make education accessible to all. In this digital age, we believe that anyone should be able to learn anything at any time. Knowledge should be more accessible, not locked behind sky-high price tags.
Over the past 5 years, our goal has been to support students across the UK & Europe to access quality books. The next stage of Perlego is twofold: 1) expand our support to students globally, and 2) build a product that goes beyond the book, a platform that helps students study smarter and more effectively.
What we’re looking for
We are looking for a motivated and enthusiastic Strategy and Operations Intern to join our team. This is an exciting opportunity for someone who is interested in learning about strategic planning, project management, data analysis, execution and optimisation of business operations in a fast-paced startup environment.
The Strategy and Ops team is responsible for driving the commercial direction of our B2B business and is in constant intersection with Product, Sales and Marketing. You’ll have the opportunity to work on go-to-market strategies, collaborate on the product roadmap definition, implement new operational processes, research business models and the industry landscape and so many other really exciting projects.
