Social & Content Intern

FALL 2026  ·  PAID INTERNSHIP  ·  NEW YORK, NY (HYBRID)  ·  $17.50/HOUR

About Olivela

At Olivela, we are pioneering an entirely new business model that sits at the intersection of retail and philanthropy. Founded by social entrepreneur Stacey Boyd, Olivela is a luxury retail concept with a mission to provide funding that improves the lives of children around the world. We believe style and purpose go hand in hand, and our social channels are a key expression of who we are: aspirational, thoughtful, and community-driven.

About the Internship

This is a paid internship that runs from October through December 2026, at approximately 14 hours per week. As an intern on our Social Media and Content team, you will do real, resume-worthy work under the close guidance of our experienced team. You will develop new skills, deepen your understanding of social media and content through hands-on application, and build a portfolio you can carry into your career. This role is a wonderful fit for a current student or recent graduate who lives and breathes social media, has a sharp eye for aesthetics, and genuinely cares about building meaningful connections online.

The Social & Content Intern will support the Social Media and Content team in executing our day-to-day work. Working directly alongside our Social Media & Content Manager, supervised by the Sr. Director of Brand & Communications, you will help bring Olivela's brand to life across our channels: capturing and editing on-brand content, scheduling and publishing posts, engaging our community, and tracking performance. You will learn about the fashion industry and the many phases of building a brand within a growing e-commerce business, and you will gain exposure by collaborating with other teams, including Brand, Creative, and Marketing.
