The Coolest Internship in Aotearoa is Here!
Keen to experience all Ōtautahi Christchurch has to offer this winter and gain work experience while you’re at it?
The city is never short of new stories to tell and we’re on the hunt for a budding content creator to tell those stories this winter!
This is your opportunity to gain valuable work experience in the social media world, while getting to know (what is in our humble opinion) the most exciting region in the country during the winter months.
Here's what we are looking for:
We’re after a Social Media Intern to join our Marketing, Brand and Communications team for three weeks (23 June – 11 July, dates can be flexible) this winter. Trust us when we say no two days will be the same! You will be out and about the city and region, filming content to be shared on the ChristchurchNZ social media channels to promote the region.
- Experience the very best Christchurch and Canterbury has to offer, and yes that may include flying down ziplines, getting up close with wildlife and enjoying some of the city’s best culinary offerings!
- Plan, create and publish engaging content across channels, with support from our Social Media Specialist.
- Be an enthusiastic, engaging ambassador for the region who is keen to give things a go.
- Engage with followers and foster a sense of community on social media platforms.
- Monitor and report on performance metrics and effectiveness of content, with support from our Social Media Specialist.
Sounds like this is made for you? Show us your personality and creativity by submitting a 60-second video showcasing your region.
