pulsd is a technology first, local media company with a clear mission to make the best of New York City more enjoyable, more accessible, and more affordable, for more of its residents in the most customer centric way.
For the past several years, pulsd has been unlocking the magic of New York City for New Yorkers. We have created a marketplace where, on the one side, we have made it more affordable for over 400,000 New Yorkers to discover and experience the most memorable moments of their lives; while on the other side, we empower incredible local businesses, artisans and entrepreneurs.
We are looking for a Content Intern to join a small team of highly-skilled professionals whose focus is on bringing more users and businesses onto the pulsd platform. This is a cross functional role that includes writing, social and design.
The ultimate goal of this role is to help spread the word of pulsd’s offerings, and to get more New Yorkers to learn about the platform and use it. The more we can get people out and about, enjoying what the city has to offer – in an affordable fashion – the more we can do our little part to address the loneliness epidemic sweeping the country.
Our current partners include hundreds of local businesses, all the way up to preeminent global brands such as Union Square Hospitality, Tao Group, Zuma New York, Warren Street Bar & Restaurant, Pvolve, Skin Spa, Eataly, Serafina, The Bowery Hotel and many more.
Responsibilities:
- Assist in producing content for pulsd across all of our platforms including web, app, and social media covering an audience of 400,000 New Yorkers.
- Work directly with pulsd’s Content Manager to produce and shoot engaging, lifestyle themed content.
- Monitor social media channels for customer interactions, comments, and DMs to grow our community.
- Support Content Manager in planning and executing social media campaigns and promotions.
- Assist with managing influencer partnerships through sourcing talent and outreach.
Requirements:
- Currently a senior undergraduate student enrolled in university.
- Experience in professional lifestyle writing, editing, & publishing.
- Familiarity working professionally with social media platforms (Instagram, TikTok, Facebook) to create engaging content that drives follower growth.
- Comprehension of standard grammar (AP Style preferred).
- Excellent attention to detail and self-editing skills.
- Possess an eye for great photography, and some experience in photography.
While this is an internship position, with a time commitment requirement of 10-20 hours per week, our intention is for the intern to join pulsd full time in a similar role upon graduation in Summer 2025.
