Intern wanted!

Home » Blog » Guests » Intern wanted!

Our new sister website needs an intern. Could it be you?

US

A cool collaboration between three parties: Forward.net.nz, Celsias.com, and HB Media. We're producing a new, New Zealand focused, sustainable/green issues dedicated internet portal. We're focusing on switched on people and professionals working in the 'sustainability space'. The portal will launch in the next two months or so.

YOU

Hip to all things internet, keen on green issues, good work ethic, strong dedication to the cause, and a no B.S. attitude. Online experience can be formal (a previous job) or informal (personal passion). Recent graduate, job changer, social networker, shaker, changemaker types need apply. Be flexible, willing to learn, and wear different 'hats'.

Key skills sought: internet/technology savvy, ability to think and strategise, good work ethic, flexibility, willingness to learn, diverse skill set, personality.

JOB

We need someone who can help us with a wide variety of duties, but predominantly online content management, networking and communications strategy and execution (Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Digg, Stumble, etc), editorial assistance, event management, and other last minute ad hoc duties (don't worry, nothing too insane—we promise!). Also, some help with internet video production would be good.

WORKPLACE

Hip and funky, low key, no fuss, bright and airy, fun and friendly loft space in Auckland central—shared with the Good magazine crew. Some remote working possible once we have duties and deliverables nailed down.

COMPENSATION

No bling just yet unfortunately—yet—but we can get you some cutting edge skills in a hot and exciting area on your CV that will make you more valuable, introduce you to the 'who's who' of the scene, and get you some damn good profile and references. There will likely be opportunities for advancement as the economy picks up with any/all of the three collaborating companies in the longer term, so keep that in mind. Some good work up front could pay off big later.

HOURS

Flexible. So long as you can make the occasional meeting and stay on the same page with everyone else, it's the deliverables that matter most.

Start date: Wednesday 1 July 2009

End date: Sunday 1 November 2009
