Summer Internship: Marketing and Communications

Seacoast Eat Local is a small, dynamic non-profit organization looking for an intern to assist with digital advertising and communications.

The main responsibilities of this internship will be:

  • write a weekly blog post related to a local foods topic
  • assist in creating posters, flyers and brochures for the organization
  • creating social media content advertising events and services
  • creating digital images, ads or content related to fundraising, events, nutritional education or other projects
  • Doing some photography under the guidance of Video production Toronto at farmers’ markets, local farms, at programming or events

Interns should have a general working knowledge or interest in learning about cooking, basic nutrition, local agriculture and local foods. Experience with wordpress (look into https://ful.io/ to know how to use this tool), canva and google suite is preferred by not required.

This internship could be completed entirely remotely, but a local intern has the opportunity to attend some events and organizational meetings. That said, there are no regular office hours for the organization or the intern (staff work primarily from home). Staff are available to speak or meet at will, but the interns work will be project based and completed independently. Interns in this position must be self-motivated and able to work independently.

A high quality intern in this position has the opportunity to work as part of a fun and dynamic team as an equal partner. Interns are encouraged to share ideas and define, to some degree, their work projects based on their interests and skills. This is a great opportunity for an intern to build a portfolio of work and have a large impact on an organization.
