Communications Intern

This is a hybrid internship. You’ll work remotely and occasionally in person at our downtown Royal Oak coworking space. You must have reliable transportation and be on time for scheduled in-office days. While this is an unpaid role, we do offer college credit.

Please note: We’re only considering applicants who are already based in the Metro Detroit area or have plans to be here during the internship. We do not provide relocation assistance.

Communications Intern

You’re creative, bold, and ready to make an impact. You’ve got ideas for days, can write killer hooks, and design content that demands attention. You thrive on creating content…playing with new concepts, pushing boundaries, and stepping out of your comfort zone to deliver fresh, engaging material consistently. You bring a positive attitude, a willingness to learn, and a knack for storytelling.

We’re Give Wrapped, Michigan’s premier Gift Design Studio. We’re not just about bows and paper…we help people build relationships—personal and professional—through thoughtful, unforgettable gifting experiences. And, we are expanding into retail, adding curated products that reflect our commitment to thoughtful gifting. Now, we need someone like you to help grow our brand online and produce a steady stream of scroll-stopping, share-worthy, gotta-save-it content.  

What You’ll Do  

  • Brainstorm ideas and develop creative content for Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, eblasts, blogs, and more.
  • Consistently produce content that aligns with our brand and speaks to our audiences.
  • Craft captions, designs, and comments that reflect our playful, professional tone.
  • Create photos and videos for posts, reels, stories, and live content.
  • Use tools like Canva to produce stunning visuals.
  • Experiment with formats and trends to keep our brand fresh and relevant.
  • Draft compelling press releases that capture attention and tell our story.
  • Pitch media outlets with timely, relevant stories that highlight our work and impact.
  • Help create eye-catching flyers, graphics, and other cool materials to boost our brand and marketing campaigns.

What We’re Looking For  

  • A fantastic, positive attitude and a love for trying new things.
  • Strong writing skills in AP Style and a knack for storytelling.
  • Excellent verbal communication skills.
  • A creative mindset ready to deliver consistent, impactful content.
  • Flexibility to collaborate in a hybrid (remote and occasional in-person) environment. We are located in a coworking space in downtown Royal Oak. You must have reliable transportation and be on time for your scheduled in-office time.
  • We expect you to be kind and respectful to EVERYONE.
  • Determination and the ability to handle feedback and use it to refine your work.  We want top-notch talent, and we know that we can all improve. We want you to SHINE and go on to do all the things you want to do and even more!

What You’ll Gain  

  • A standout portfolio with real-world results and data.
  • Professional connections in the industry.
  • Hands-on experience managing and producing high-quality, consistent content.
  • Bragging rights for working with Michigan’s most innovative gift studio.

Details You Should Know  

  • This is an unpaid internship.  You will not receive compensation, wages, or benefits.
  • Give Wrapped will support your effort to obtain college course credit, if applicable.  You will be responsible for satisfying any requirements your school may have to obtain course credit.
  • As part of our selection process, we’d like to see how you approach a short writing test. This will give us a chance to evaluate how well you align with Give Wrapped, and it’s also an opportunity for you to showcase your creativity and skills.
  • If an internship offer is extended to you, you are here for a beautiful reason and not by chance. You will be expected to sign an agreement where you agree to be respectful, kind and inclusive to everyone you interact with on social media and in-person settings. Any negative energy will be asked to leave. We take this seriously because we care about our fellow humans and know it’s better when we all work together. Be the person you dream of being.
