Job Description

Salary: $20/hour

Location: Remote or Washington, D.C.

Content creation, texting production, and reporting

Want to break into digital for political campaigns and advocacy groups? Get your start with us. Middle Seat is a digital consulting firm that works with campaigns, nonprofits, advocacy organizations, and causes on the front lines of reproductive justice, racial justice, climate action, immigration rights, and economic justice.

We’re looking for a creative self-starter to support our Social Media & Texting team as a paid intern for Summer 2025 (June - August 2025).

What does the role involve?

As a Social Media & Texting intern at Middle Seat, you’ll learn the ins and outs of digital communications, fundraising, and mobilization. You’ll be responsible for assisting with text message production and quality assurance, taking the first stab at copywriting for social posts and texts, compiling social media reporting and monitoring through SproutSocial, creating short-form videos or graphics, completing administrative tasks, and other responsibilities as requested. 

This role is available either in person at our Washington, D.C office or remotely. This role is not part of the bargaining unit.

Requirements

This role is for you if:

  • You’re excited by the idea of working for progressive clients doing great work on the ground
  • You’re a strong writer with correct grammar and self-proofreading skills 
  • You’re detail-oriented, organized, and are able to assist our team in ensuring top quality for final products
  • You are constantly scrolling social media for new trends and enjoy consuming & creating content
  • You’re technically adept and pick up new tools easily
  • You follow your favorite candidates on social media and subscribe to their fundraising programs
  • You are in your final year of an undergraduate program or are a recent graduate

It would be nice if you:

  • Have a background in social media management and demonstrate an understanding of best practices for platforms like Twitter, TikTok, Instagram, and more
  • Have experience in or exposure to digital fundraising
  • Have worked on a political campaign, advocacy organization, or nonprofit
  • Have experience with graphic design (from Canva to Adobe) and light video editing (in-app editing on TikTok or Instagram included!)

And it’s essential that you:

  • Are committed to working for progressive political candidates and causes

  • Are a team player

  • Follow along with the news of the day, particularly an understanding of the U.S. political system as well as key progressive issues

  • Can commit to full-time (40-hour work week) or near full-time availability, with consistent hours each week

Benefits

We offer a salary of $20 per hour.

We are committed to building a diverse and passionate team. We encourage creative-minded individuals with a strong technical aptitude to apply for this position. Women, people of color, and LGBTQ+ individuals are encouraged to apply.

Our firm is values-driven. We are intentional with the decidedly left-of-center clients we work with — and we strive to make our work environment and benefits reflect that, including salary transparency, healthy work-life balance, and consistent employee feedback and communication. We’re happy to talk more about our company culture with prospective applicants.
