CURRICULUM INTERN – FINANCIAL LITERACY
We Want To Change The World. We Believe It Starts With Education.
In India, 100 million children from low-income communities grow up without access to the 21st-century skills they need to thrive — from emotional intelligence and digital literacy to everyday money management. This gap leads to a lifetime of limited opportunity, intergenerational poverty, and rising mental health concerns.
What Are We Doing?
At The Apprentice Project (TAP), we're building India's boldest bet on education equity — an AI-powered learning buddy that helps thousands of government school students unlock 21st-century skills. We don't just teach coding or financial literacy — we spark self-confidence, creativity, and lifelong curiosity in children who've been told to "stay in their lane."
We're not looking for employees. We're looking for co-builders — people who want to create generational change, one student at a time.
Who We're Looking For
We're looking for someone who understands that financial literacy is one of the most practical and undervalued skills a child can develop — and who wants to help make it genuinely accessible and engaging. You have a basic grasp of everyday financial concepts and the ability to explain them simply. You're comfortable with research, attentive to detail, and willing to support both the creative and the operational sides of curriculum work — from developing activities to updating trackers to organising content. If you want to help children understand money in a way that actually changes how they think about their lives — you'll thrive here.
