Social Media and Content Intern

Responsibilities

• Shoot short-form video in the NYC office against a monthly content plan agreed with your manager.
• Act as the point person for founder content. When Laura is writing, presenting, hosting, or explaining something, you are the one who captures it.
• Direct simple on-camera setups, including talking-head pieces with the CEO and members of the science and commercial teams.
• Edit your own footage to finished, caption-ready assets sized correctly for Instagram and LinkedIn.
• Cover company culture, team moments, lab and production, and lighter formats where they suit the brand.
• Maintain a clear shot log and organized asset library in Google Drive so footage is reusable.
• Come in with two or three ideas of your own, but take overall direction from the marketing manager.
• Flag anything that touches product claims or study data to your manager before it is scheduled. Everything we publish about effera® goes through a review step.

Requirements

• You shoot on a phone and it looks intentional, not accidental.
• You have a reel we can watch.
• You edit competently in CapCut, Premiere, Final Cut, or Canva. We’re not precious about the tool.
• You work independently. We have an external designer who can help occasionally, but this role is not built around leaning on her — you can take something from idea to finished asset yourself.
• You’re flexible on scheduling. Time in the office moves around the CEO’s calendar, so you can work with dates that shift.
• You understand how Instagram and LinkedIn actually behave, not just how they look. You can explain why a post worked.
• You’re comfortable directing a CEO — asking for another take, moving someone into better light, and holding your ground on the shot.

Preferred

• Bonus points for any interest in science, nutrition, biotech, or health, or for experience making technical subject matter feel human.
• Bonus points for basic graphic or motion work in Canva or After Effects.
