Job Description
Food52, a fast-growing, James Beard Award-winning online food community and crowd-sourced and curated recipe hub, is currently interviewing full- and part-time unpaid interns to work in a small team of editors, executives, and developers in its New York City headquarters. This will involve plenty of writing and editing, good but not necessarily healthy food, unruly behind-the-scenes website functions, a deepening relationship with your laptop, and coffee.
Responsibilities:
Working in a small, fast-moving editorial team to produce clever, useful online food content (sometimes on the fly, sometimes days or weeks ahead)
Conceiving and writing short original blog posts: recipe roundups and menu plans, technique how-tos, features on goings-on in the greater online food community
Producing and editing repackaged content for partner sites, in their various content management systems
Managing current social media accounts and seeking out new ones
Helping out at weekly photo and video shoots including: shopping, food prep, lunch runs, dishes, taste-testing, general morale-building
Community management with a smile: corresponding and trouble-shooting with members via email, responding actively to comments and cooking questions on Food52 and the Food52 Hotline
Helping with office admin work, such as filing and mailing
Working with developers to document bugs and suggest improvements to the site
Supporting editorial and executive staff
Helping to produce and edit Food52's cookbooks and apps
Requirements:
Writing experience (published clips and/or personal blog)
Experience with content management systems a major plus (any blogging counts!)
Familiar with the Food52 editorial voice and aesthetic
Cooking experience a plus (some combination of culinary school or other professional cooking experience)
Loves food, appreciates the importance of home cooking and cooking with the seasons
Meticulous editor, perfectionist, obsessive attention to detail, maddened by typos and broken links, delighted by finding and fixing them
Cheerful under pressure
Excellent communication skills
A+ multi-tasker and juggler of responsibilities big and small
Interested in and engaged with social media like Twitter, Facebook, and Pinterest
Loves problem-solving and collaborating to drive Food52 forward
Thinks big picture but pitches in on the nitty gritty of running a small company (dishes, shopping, administrative support)
Comfortable with the realities of working for a startup: being on call on evenings and weekends, and working long hours
Has a good sense of humor (i.e. think we're funny) |
