Social Media & Content Manager (Arabic)

Is your main point of communication via Facebook? Do you binge on Insta Stories as much as you do Netflix? Are Facebook and Twitter your top sources for (non-fake) news? Do you enjoy engaging with people from all over the world? Are you a longtime supporter of Snapchat filters? Do you want to make the world a better place?

If you answered “yes” to any of the above questions, let’s talk. University of the People (UoPeople) is the revolution of education. It is the first non-profit, tuition-free, American accredited online university. Dedicated to opening access to higher education globally, UoPeople is designed to help qualified high school graduates overcome financial, geographic, political, and personal constraints keeping them from collegiate studies.
