Description

Creative Marketing InternTemporary: Approximately 3 Month Duration New York, NY

About the Position:

Mountainside Treatment Center is looking for a recent college graduate to join our New York City marketing team for a full-time, three-month internship starting as soon as possible. This role leans creative: most of your time will go to video editing, clipping content for social media, and graphic design. You'll also get hands-on exposure to the rest of our marketing work, including digital advertising, content strategy, social media management, our website, and events.

You'll work closely with a small, mission-driven team that creates content for people looking for help with addiction and for the families supporting them. If you have a good eye, like learning by doing, and want your first role out of school to reach people who need it, this is a strong fit.

Monday - Friday, 9:00 am - 5:00 pm

Additional hours outside of the regular schedule may be required to attend Mountainside events

• Turn existing footage, interviews, and long-form content into platform-ready clips
• Build a working understanding of how creative, strategy, and audience engagement fit together across digital channels
• Keep every piece consistent with Mountainside's brand identity, voice, and visual standards
• Leave with a portfolio of published work that shows what you can do

Responsibilities:

• Edit and clip video for social media, cutting long-form interviews, expert discussions, and event footage into short, platform-ready videos
• Add subtitles, on-screen text, simple motion graphics, music, and transitions, and format edits for vertical and horizontal placements
• Write on-screen hooks, opening text, and video titles that earn the first few seconds of attention
• Design social graphics, carousels, Instagram Stories, thumbnails, and cover images within Mountainside's brand guidelines
• Work with our senior graphic designer on event materials, print pieces, and other visual assets as needed
• Write and refine social media captions tailored to each platform
• Organize and maintain a library of footage, clips, and templates so the team can find and reuse content quickly
• Spot opportunities to repurpose existing content into new formats, edits, and creative concepts
• Assist with social media content planning, organization, and scheduling
• Track how videos and posts perform and share what's working with the team
• Research platform trends, editing techniques, and emerging creative formats
• Get exposure to the wider marketing team's work, including paid media, SEO and website updates, PR, and events, and pitch in on those projects as needed

Qualifications:

• Recent college graduate with a bachelor's degree in Marketing, Communications, Film, Graphic Design, or a related field
• Available to work in person, Monday-Friday, 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM for the full three months, starting as soon as possible
• Hands-on experience with video editing tools such as Adobe Premiere Pro, CapCut, or similar software
• Working knowledge of design tools such as Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, or Canva
• Experience with After Effects or other motion graphics tools is a plus
• A clear understanding of how content formats and audience expectations differ by platform
• Strong writing skills, with an ability to develop concise, engaging captions and hooks
• Good visual judgment and attention to detail, including pacing, framing, typography, and brand consistency
• Organized and able to manage a high volume of edits and deadlines at once
• Comfortable taking feedback and turning around revisions quickly
• A portfolio is required with your application (video edits, design work, social content, or personal projects all count)
