Communications Intern, Content & Publicity

Responsibilities

• Create email marketing and social media content: newsletters, LinkedIn and X posts, and campaign copy, in the practice’s voice
• Plan and maintain content calendars, and track performance (open rate, click-through, engagement) to sharpen what works
• Support publicity: media research, journalist and outlet lists, pitch drafts, and outreach for review
• Research influencers and partners, support outreach, and keep relationship tracking clean
• Turn long-form thinking into short-form content, and edit and proofread everything before it ships
• Monitor mentions, competitors, and industry conversations for openings worth joining
• Put AI tools to work on drafts and research, then edit until the result sounds like us rather than like everyone else

Requirements

• Graduate student preferred, or in your final year of undergrad (communications, marketing, journalism, English, business, or similar)
• Writing samples: published work, a newsletter, a social channel you’ve grown, or strong coursework
• A sharp writer and ruthless editor, including of your own work
• Familiarity with email marketing and social scheduling tools (specific platforms can be learned)
• Working grasp of content metrics and what moves them
• A critical thinker who does not accept “that’s what everyone posts” as an argument
• Meticulous. A typo in a published email is a public event
• Commercial aptitude: content that doesn’t move a number is decoration
• Discretion and sound judgment in anything public-facing
• Curious, self-directed, and motivated. We don’t manage calendars
