Social Media & Digital Marketing Intern (with Business Operations Stretch) The Glass Market | NYC (Hybrid) | Part-Time Internship
About The Glass Market
- Fast-growing early-stage company building a brand from the ground up
- Small, scrappy team where interns get real ownership, real reps, and real visibility into how a business runs
- Looking for someone hungry to learn across marketing AND operations — not just push posts
The Role
- Own day-to-day execution across our social channels (Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn) and digital marketing efforts
- Get exposure to the wider business — inventory, events, fulfillment, partnerships, and whatever else needs a sharp set of hands that week
- Work directly with the founder/leadership team
What You'll Do — Social & Digital Marketing
- Plan, shoot, edit, and publish content across IG, TikTok, and LinkedIn
- Help run and report on paid digital campaigns (Meta, Google, influencer)
- Manage the content calendar and community engagement (DMs, comments, UGC)
- Track performance and surface what's working / what's not
- Support email marketing (Klaviyo or similar) and website updates
What You'll Do — Business Operations Stretch
- Help coordinate events, pop-ups, and on-the-ground brand activations around NYC
- Pitch in on order fulfillment, vendor coordination, and light logistics
- Run the occasional pickup/dropoff or store visit (this is why a car matters)
- Build simple systems and trackers to keep the team organized
You Might Be a Fit If You
- Are a current undergrad or recent grad with demonstrated interest in marketing, brand, or entrepreneurship
- Live and breathe social — you know what good content looks like and can make it yourself
- Are comfortable with Canva, CapCut, Figma, or similar tools (bonus: Photoshop, Premiere)
- Are organized, proactive, and don't need to be told twice
- Want to learn the operational side of a brand, not just the marketing side
- Have a car and are willing to use it (mileage reimbursed)
Logistics
- 2 days/week minimum in person; flexible on which days
- NYC-based strongly preferred (you'll be at our space + on-the-ground around the city)
- Paid hourly — rate based on experience
- Start date: flexible
- Duration: semester-long with potential to extend
To Apply
- Submit your resume + a short note (3–5 sentences) on why you're interested
- Optional but encouraged: link to social accounts, content, or brands you've worked on
