Job Description
Hardscrabble Hospitality – NYC Restaurants
We’re looking for a smart, creative college student to join us this summer as a paid Social Media Intern. You’ll work across all of our NYC restaurants: Loring Place, Greywind, The Bakery at Greywind, Spygold, and Washington Squares.
What You'll Do:
- Create and manage weekly content calendars (with support from our team)
- Shoot and edit photo/video content for Instagram and TikTok
- Stay on top of social trends and use them to create timely, on-brand content
- Post content and engage with our audience (comments, DMs, reposts)
- Help capture and promote seasonal dishes, events, and campaigns
What You Need:
- Strong interest in creating social content, especially Reels and TikToks
- Experience with short-form video editing (CapCut, InShot, Canva, etc.)
- Ability to identify dishes correctly and use accurate language from the menu (e.g., don’t confuse “salmon with sugar snaps” for a “sugar snap pea salad”)
- Comfortable working independently, taking initiative, and being organized
- Based in NYC or able to travel to our Manhattan locations regularly
Bonus:
- You love food and follow what’s happening in NYC restaurants
- You can share examples of social content you’ve created (school projects or personal work)
To Apply:
Email your resume, any sample work (or links to your social accounts), and a few short answers to the questions below to [email protected]
Application Questions:
- What are 2–3 Instagram or TikTok accounts that you think are doing food content well — and why?
- Share 2 content ideas you’d want to try for one of our restaurants.
- What video/photo editing tools do you currently use?
- What’s one thing you’ve seen trending recently that we could use on our feeds?
