Love words? So do we.

If you’ve ever rewritten a headline just for fun, crafted the perfect caption, or believed the right phrase can change everything, this might be your summer. 

Flint Group is looking for a curious, Creative Writing Flintern to join our Copy Team for Summer 2026. You’ll collaborate with experienced copywriters, contribute to real client work, and team up with fellow interns to lead a full-scale project for a local nonprofit; from strategy to final deliverables.
