Social Media Intern

📍 Remote | 🌍 International Applicants Welcome | ⏳ Must be available 20+ hrs/week (EST) | ⚠️ Unpaid Role | You do NOT need to be a student | College credit optional | Must be able to start immediately.

Are you a digital storyteller who loves content that connects and inspires? As our Social Media Intern, you’ll help plan, create, and share engaging posts across our platforms—telling stories about student success, small-business impact, and community growth.

You’ll collaborate with our creative and communications teams to bring campaigns to life, and you’ll learn how consistent, on-brand content builds a real community around a mission.

About GlowUp ACS — GlowUp ACS is a New Jersey–based 501(c)(3) nonprofit working to close the “experience paradox”: the catch-22 where entry-level roles require experience that early-career talent hasn’t yet had the chance to build. As an Associate Intern, you’ll contribute to real, meaningful work on live projects. This is an unpaid role, and we follow all applicable U.S. and university guidelines for unpaid internships; documentation to support college credit is available upon request. We value self-starters who communicate openly and thrive in a flexible, collaborative, fully remote environment.

Responsibilities

• Help plan, write, and schedule content across GlowUp ACS social platforms.
• Create visuals, short videos, and stories using Canva, Adobe tools, or similar.
• Monitor trends and contribute ideas for new campaigns and content series.
• Track engagement metrics and summarize performance insights.
• Support community engagement through thoughtful replies and interaction.

What You’ll Need

• Interest in social media, content creation, or digital storytelling.
• Familiarity with current platforms and trends.
• Strong communication skills and a proactive, problem-solving mindset.
• Reliable computer/laptop, stable Wi-Fi, and a webcam/microphone.

What You’ll Gain

• The official Associate Intern title for your resume and LinkedIn.
• Hands-on experience on real projects you can add to your portfolio.
• Mentorship and feedback, with access to professional development resources as capacity allows.
• Eligibility for optional college credit where your school offers it, with documentation provided on request.
• A reference reflecting your contributions, where earned, and the potential to grow into a Fellowship or title-earning role over time.
• A welcoming, inclusive, mission-driven remote team.

If that sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you. Come grow with GlowUp ACS!
