Job Description

Brilliant Agency, one of the most respected and rapidly growing agencies focused on family-oriented brands, seeks a REMOTE Public Relations Intern, 15 hours a week to help support the agency’s growing, award-winning team. 

Who We Are:

So what’s Brilliant all about? We are a unique PR agency, celebrating 15 years in business with over 25 team members who all work remotely across the US. We give our team the resources they need to get their work done without having to sit in a cubicle or stuffy office. From costume contests to virtual happy hours and Slack GIFs, we prioritize connecting with each other and creating a sense of community. Although we are remote, team members are expected to be available online during regular business hours, and there is occasional travel for events and trade shows.

What We Do:

Brilliant is in its second decade as a fully remote company and is one of the most respected agencies serving consumer lifestyle brands with a specific focus on products, brands, and services for families including baby and maternity, toys and games, tech, housewares, and food.

Potential Responsibilities Include:

  • Learn how to identify media/influencer targets and assist your team in building lists
  • Help your team monitor and report media, influencer, and social coverage on behalf of clients and create monthly clippings reports
  • Contribute creative ideas to team brainstorms for client campaigns, activations and events

  • Support the  management of influencer campaigns on behalf of our clients
  • Identify relevant influencers for promotion of our clients’ products and services
  • Help draft initial outreach emails to potential influencers to pitch collaboration ideas and negotiate terms
  • Provide general support to the account team  as needed
  • Use technology platforms such as Google Drive, AirTable, Google, TikTok, Instagram, Seamless, LinkedIn and more to assist your team in, research, media and influencer relations, social media, content creation, and more

Requirements Include:

  • You must be a rising sophomore, junior or senior. 
  • Previous office internship experience required in the marketing space
  • 3.0 GPA or above
  • Commit at least 15 hours a week during our normal office hours or 8-5 in your time zone
  • Excellent writing skills
  • Social media savvy
  • Strong organizational abilities
  • Professional demeanor and a drive to succeed
  • Eagerness to learn and willingness to ask questions
  • Resourceful attitude and keen attention to detail

***Prior to applying for this position, please contact your College or University Career Center and verify that you are eligible to receive College Credits for an Internship although accepting credit hours is not necessary to accept an offer. If selected, Brilliant will reimburse you $250 each month for using your personal cell phone, computer, and home internet.***
