Growth & Marketing Intern

About Pantas

At Pantas, we are pioneering a new approach to measuring, managing and reporting carbon emissions for businesses. As the first PCAF-accredited platform in Asia, we set the standard in carbon accounting and give organisations the tools they need to decarbonise effectively.

Pantas is a fast-growing tech startup founded by three Malaysians with over 30 years of combined experience in finance, hedge funds, investment banking, management consulting, software engineering and startups. Our leadership team has a proven track record, including the successful sale of a data analytics company to Bain & Company. Our investors include top-tier VCs from Silicon Valley, private equity and hedge fund investors from the US, Europe, Hong Kong and Singapore, and one of Southeast Asia's largest conglomerates.

We operate with a startup mentality — a flat management structure, real ownership of your work, and the room to move quickly.

About Axsona

Axsona is a product built by Pantas. Axsona's flagship product, AI Twins, deploys demographically accurate AI agents at scale to simulate how target audiences respond to messaging, products and strategy — delivering decision-grade intelligence at speed. Axsona is at an exciting early stage, and part of your role will be helping to shape its market presence as it grows.

Our AI-first way of working

Pantas operates an AI-first culture. Every team member receives access to Claude Code and may also work with OpenAI Codex, Gemini and other relevant AI systems. These are not treated simply as chatbots or tools for drafting and conversation. We use AI to perform real work and to build practical systems: agents, skills, automations, workflows, prototypes, analyses, and internal or client-facing tools.

This applies to the GTM function as much as to engineering. You will not need to be a software engineer, but you do need to already be comfortable using AI to create, analyse, automate or deliver meaningful work.

About the role

This is a Pantas role first. The bulk of your work — social media, LinkedIn, communications, networking events, sales preparation — is for Pantas. You will learn to sell our carbon accounting platform, support the team in client-facing settings, and help grow Pantas's market presence.

Axsona is the stretch piece. As Axsona grows, part of your role will involve helping to shape its visibility alongside your core Pantas responsibilities. This is where you get the opportunity to help build something at an early stage — but it sits on top of a strong Pantas foundation, not instead of it.

As GTM Intern, you will own top-of-funnel activities and support the broader sales cycle: brand and social presence, outreach and demand generation, bookings, demo preparation, proposals and contracting support. You will sit in on real client meetings, prepare the material that goes into them, and keep the record of what worked.

You will work directly under the GTM Lead, who will set your scope, priorities and KPIs, with guidance and exposure to Pantas leadership. You will begin with structured onboarding and close supervision, then take on greater independent ownership as you demonstrate judgement.

What you will do

· Social media and brand building: Build and maintain Pantas's social media presence across LinkedIn and other relevant channels: content calendar, copy, visual assets and posting cadence. Create content — posts, graphics, short-form video, newsletters — on carbon accounting, sustainability and climate tech topics that position Pantas as the authority in its space. Over time, extend social media and content efforts to help shape Axsona's growing presence in the AI and decision-intelligence space.

· Sales communications and pipeline support: Draft and manage sales communications that keep the pipeline moving — follow-up emails, meeting confirmations, nurture sequences and re-engagement outreach. Maintain regular touchpoints with prospects to keep conversations alive and move opportunities through the funnel. Support event communications: invitations, pre-event outreach, post-event follow-up and relationship-building with attendees.

· Sales enablement: Learn how Pantas sells: understand the product, the buyer, the objections and the sales cycle so you can support the team credibly. Assist the GTM Lead and leadership with tailored pitch decks and discovery-call briefs ahead of client meetings. Assist with proposal generation, RFP responses and contracting documentation as needed. Attend client meetings and internal sales sessions: take the notes, capture the follow-ups, and make sure nothing falls between calls.

· Email outreach and demand generation: Design and execute creative outbound email campaigns — experiment with messaging angles, subject lines, sequences and timing to find what resonates. Come up with fresh outreach strategies that cut through the noise and generate genuine interest. Convert engagement into booked meetings, and make sure every booking arrives with the context the team needs.

· GTM operations and data: Own the sales cycle log: track every opportunity from first touch through outreach, booking, demo, proposal, RFP and contracting. Maintain the funnel metrics that tell us the truth — views, replies, meetings booked, meetings held, proposals sent, deals closed — and surface where the bottlenecks are. Document GTM processes into clear SOPs, then help convert the repetitive ones into AI-assisted workflows and automations.

What this role is and is not

It is a focused go-to-market role under Pantas. Your scope is social media, communications, events, networking, demand generation and sales support — primarily for Pantas, with a growing contribution to Axsona's brand.

This is an internship at a startup. That means you will be doing real work with real impact from day one. You will sit in on client meetings, help prepare material for live deals, and be trusted with responsibilities that matter. The pace is fast, the learning curve is steep, and the exposure you get will go well beyond what most internships offer.

There is a genuine possibility of conversion to a full-time role. We invest in our interns with the hope of bringing high performers onto the team permanently.

What we are looking for

· Education: Final-year university students or recent graduates in any discipline. We care more about how you think and what you can do than about what you studied.

· Strong communicator: Excellent written and verbal English — you will be writing outward-facing copy that carries our brand.

· Experimental mindset: You are willing to run something, have it not work, and say so clearly — then change one variable and run it again.

· Proactive and independent: You take initiative, manage several threads at once and meet deadlines without being chased.

· Commercial instinct: You can connect a piece of content or a conversation to the revenue outcome it is meant to produce.

· Professional maturity: You will be in rooms with senior decision-makers early. You need the judgement and discretion that comes with that.

· Comfort with ambiguity and speed: Priorities shift in a startup building a new category. That has to energise you rather than unsettle you.

Experience that is useful, but not required

· Previous internship experience: In business development, marketing, sales or communications.

· Hands-on experience: With social media marketing, content creation, copywriting, design or video.

· A strong bonus: Creative marketing skills, particularly generating engaging video ideas, scriptwriting, editing, or producing short-form video content that captures audience attention.

·  AI-assisted building experience: Hands-on experience with prompts, agents, workflow design, automation, or prototyping is a strong advantage, enabling you to immediately scale GTM operations and build practical workflows from day one.

·  Leadership experience: In co-curricular activities, student organisations or volunteer roles.

·  Domain interest: Interest or prior knowledge in carbon emissions, sustainability, climate tech, AI or decision intelligence.

What is in it for you

· Possibility of a full-time role: We invest in our interns with the hope of converting high performers into permanent team members.

· Two industries at once: Climate tech and carbon accounting through Pantas; applied AI and decision intelligence through Axsona. Very few internships give you that range.

· Help shape something early: You will contribute to Axsona's growing market presence and be part of the team that builds it.

· Real ownership, early: Direct mentorship from the GTM Lead, direct exposure to Pantas leadership, and a seat in real client meetings.

· Frontier AI, applied to real work: Access to Claude Code and other AI systems, and structured training in how we actually use them to build and ship.

· Collaborative culture: A flat, collaborative team that values diverse perspectives and backgrounds, and where good ideas are taken seriously regardless of who they come from.
