MacArthur Foundation Communications Internship Summer 2025 (Paid)

Deadline: January 5, 2025

Applications are open for the MacArthur Foundation Communications Internship Summer 2025. The Communications Intern will support the department with a balance of short- and long-term projects. The Communications team collaborates with program teams and other colleagues across the Foundation to create and implement strategic communications plans that enhance the impact of MacArthur’s work and the work of grantees.

The team is responsible for the Foundation’s strategic efforts to communicate with the press, public, and policymakers, including media relations, web and social media efforts, printed materials, and events. The team also provides communications support and advice to MacArthur’s leadership, staff, and grantees.

The internship is designed to be a substantive learning experience, so the intern will join Communications team meetings and Staff events and attend briefings by grantees and other practitioners. The intern will contribute across MacArthur’s areas of work, rather than focus on any one social issue. This internship will be of value to candidates interested in communications, especially as a tool for social change.

Responsibilities

Responsibilities may include:

  • Brainstorming, researching, and creating stories to communicate MacArthur’s work, both written and multimedia;
  • Supporting meetings and events for internal and external audiences;
  • Researching and developing databases on vendors, media relations work, and peer best practices;
  • Contributing to Staff forums on Communications strategies and approaches; and
  • Other projects, as determined in consultation with the intern and depending on the team’s needs.

Eligibility

  • Successful candidates will have a demonstrated interest in communications, journalism, public relations, digital communications, and/or public affairs.
  • Strong written and oral communication skills, outstanding organizational abilities, and attention to detail are essential.
  • Experience with social media, photography, video editing or production is a plus.

Application

Applicants should submit a cover letter and resume. As a requirement, students “must be returning back to school” to be eligible.

Include with your application:

  • Cover letter explaining your interest
  • Resume
  • Two creative samples (writing and/or multimedia)
  • Additional materials, such as a website or digital portfolio, are also welcome
