Internship - Social Media & Content Creation - Fall

INTERNSHIP ROL E DESCRIPTION SOCIAL MEDIA AND CONTENT CREATION INTERN About Read Better Be Better

Read Better Be Better (RBBB) is an education nonprofit addressing Arizona's literacy crisis. We equip youth with the skills to read and lead. Interns join a mission-driven, collaborative team and contribute meaningfully to programs that make a real impact.

The Social Media & Content Creation Intern will work under the supervision of the Communications Manager to help bring Read Better Be Better's stories to life across social media platforms. This is NOT a graphic design role, though an eye for design and experience with Canva will be helpful qualifications for a candidate.

This role is ideal for someone creative with strong written communication skills, basic video editing skills, and an understanding of how content performs on social media. This role requires an individual who can take direction and manage tight turnarounds while maintaining attention to detail.
