Communications Intern

Red Edge

You've got skills, ideas, and ambition, but you need a place to show them off—and a place to make them work in the real world. Grab an internship with the communications team at Red Edge!

Red Edge, a digital advocacy firm that serves leading organizations defending free enterprise, is looking for a young whippersnapper to come in and help out—in a meaningful way. We're looking for an older-than-their-years type who doesn't need babysitting and who can learn and offer their own ideas.

  • Be a go-getter who isn't afraid to take ownership over projects and tasks
  • Be willing to bring their own ideas to further our creativity and help brainstorm projects
  • Confidently apply writing and creative skills for ad copy, blog posts, and daily tweets
  • Pitch in on design for social media, websites, or motion graphics
  • Assist in company social media presence and outreach
  • Leave with an effusive recommendation and demonstrable work to show future employers (hey, maybe that's us!)

Timeline: When can you start?

Pay: This is a paid internship. Pay aligns with experience. 

About Red Edge:
We have extensive experience in creating and implementing digital strategies, campaigns, and products—ranging from brand conception, design, coding, targeted advertising, and community management—for leading international corporations, major trade associations, political parties, charities, and more.
