ABOUT THE COMPANY
Candace Marie Consulting is a boutique social media agency focused on the luxury, celebrity, and lifestyle sectors.

ABOUT THE INTERNSHIP
We are looking for a motivated, creative, and highly organized Summer Intern to support the founder of a boutique social media consultancy operating at the intersection of fashion, beauty, and lifestyle. This is a hands-on internship — you will contribute to real work, across real brands, in real time.
This role spans three pillars: Social Media & Content, Brand Partnerships & Production, and Administrative & Executive Support. You will gain exposure to all three, with the opportunity to go deep in the areas where you shine. If you are someone who takes pride in the details, brings creative energy to everything you touch, and wants to understand what it looks like to build and run a creative consultancy from the inside — this is the internship for you.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
Social Media & Content
- Assist with editing and producing short-form video content
- Support copywriting across social channels — learning to write with intention, in multiple brand voices, and for specific platforms
- Monitor competitor activity, trending content, and shifts in the social landscape and help surface actionable insights
- Bring fresh ideas and creative perspectives to content brainstorms and strategy sessions
Administrative & Executive Support
- Help manage calendar logistics across multiple time zones, including confirming and preparing for appointments
- Draft professional communications and assist with follow-ups on behalf of the founder
- Pull reports, compile data, and work across Excel, Google Sheets, Google Docs, and Word
- Support general operations and organization, handling sensitive information with discretion
Brand Partnerships & Production
- Assist with photo and video shoot coordination — from prep through wrap
- Support product and sample management, including tracking, shipping, and post-shoot organization
- Help compile campaign reports, track deliverables, and coordinate product send-outs for brand partners
WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- Currently enrolled in or recently graduated from a program in communications, marketing, fashion, media, or a related field
- Genuine interest in fashion, beauty, and lifestyle — you follow this space because you love it
- An eye for aesthetics and curiosity about what makes content perform
- Deeply organized, reliable, and able to juggle competing priorities without dropping the ball
- Proactive and resourceful — you see what needs to happen and you make it happen
- Comfortable with ambiguity and the pace of a fast-moving creative environment
- Strong written and verbal communication skills with excellent grammar and attention to detail
- Warm, professional, and collaborative — comfortable working across all levels
- Willing to occasionally support outside of standard business hours when needed (events, shoots, etc.)
TECHNICAL SKILLS & PLATFORM FLUENCY
- Familiarity with Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and LinkedIn
- Comfortable with Microsoft Word, Excel, Google Docs, and Google Sheets
- Basic video editing experience (CapCut, Adobe Premiere, or similar) — a plus, not a requirement
- Comfortable with virtual meeting platforms (Zoom, Google Meet, etc.)
- Eagerness to learn new tools, platforms, and workflows as needed
