Location: Remote Type: Internship Start date: May 2026
The role
We're looking for a social-media-native intern who lives and breathes Instagram Reels and short-form content. You'll be the person who spots the next trending audio before it peaks, knows which hooks are converting right now, and can scout an influencer's profile and tell within two minutes whether their engagement is real or inflated.
Beyond managing influencers, you'll also be a creator yourself — making UGC Reels for Sabai's own handle as a brand ambassador. If you've ever thought, I could make better content than the brands I follow, this is your shot.
What you'll do
Influencer marketing
- Research, identify, and build a pipeline of relevant nano, micro, and mid-tier influencers across Instagram and YouTube for Sabai-focused campaigns
- Audit influencer profiles for engagement quality — spot fake followers, ghost audiences, and inflated metrics before we spend a rupee
- Manage end-to-end influencer coordination: outreach, brief, content approval, posting, and follow-up
- Build and maintain a structured influencer database with categories, rates, past performance, and notes
- Negotiate deliverables and rates with influencers in line with campaign budgets
Content strategy + ideation
- Come up with fresh, out-of-the-box reel concepts and hooks for influencer briefs — think beyond the obvious
- Stay on top of trending audio, formats, and content styles on Instagram Reels and TikTok, and bring them into Sabai's strategy proactively
- Write clear, inspiring creative briefs that give influencers direction without killing their authenticity
- Ideate UGC-style content angles that feel native to the platform and drive action
Analytics + performance tracking
- Track performance of every influencer collaboration — reach, views, saves, shares, link clicks, and conversions
- Analyse which hooks, formats, and influencer profiles are driving the best ROI and present findings clearly to the team
- Know how to read engagement rate, follower authenticity scores, audience demographics, and swipe-up/link data
- Use tools like Instagram Insights, Phyllo, HypeAuditor, or similar to validate influencer metrics
Brand ambassador + UGC creation
- Create UGC-style Reels for Sabai's Instagram handle on a regular cadence — you are also a creator in this role
- Represent Sabai authentically on social media as a brand ambassador when required
- Film, edit, and post content independently — from concept to final video — using your phone and basic editing tools
- Experiment with different hooks, formats, and CTAs and report back what resonates
What we're looking for
- You spend a lot of time on Instagram Reels and TikTok — not just as a consumer but as someone who studies what works
- You understand the difference between a 3-second hook that retains and one that loses people — intuitively
- Some hands-on experience creating UGC or short-form content, even if personal or freelance
- You know how to audit an influencer account — engagement rate benchmarks, follower quality, niche relevance
- Comfortable with data: you can open a spreadsheet, log campaign metrics, and spot a pattern
- Strong written communication for outreach and briefing influencers professionally
- Self-motivated and organised — you can manage multiple influencers across different stages simultaneously
- Genuine enthusiasm for brand building and consumer culture
Nice to have
- Prior internship or project experience in influencer marketing, social media, or content creation
- Familiarity with tools like HypeAuditor, Modash, Phyllo, or any influencer analytics platform
- Basic video editing skills on CapCut, InShot, or similar mobile-first tools
- An existing personal social media presence or content portfolio
- Knowledge of affiliate marketing or performance-based influencer models
What Sabai offers
- Real responsibility from week one — you won't be shadowing anyone
- Your content will go live on Sabai's channels, and you'll see the numbers in real time
- Direct mentorship from the marketing leads
- A front-row seat to how a consumer brand is built
- Internship stipend + potential for a full-time role based on performance
