Join our team...

GoDaddy’s Public Relations team recently launched @GoDaddyNews, a new Instagram channel designed to reach and engage an 18–34 audience with timely, relevant stories and brand moments.  

 We’re looking for a Social Media Intern to help bring the channel to life through trend monitoring, community engagement, content support, and weekly reporting. This is a remote, hands-on role with mentorship and clear project-based goals. 

Key Responsibilities 

• Support the day-to-day management of the @GoDaddyNews Instagram channel, including publishing support (captions, hashtags, alt text, tagging) and basic scheduling with oversight. 

• Monitor social trends and platform moments relevant to an 18–34 audience; bring weekly ideas for Reels, Stories, carousels, and interactive stickers (polls, quizzes, Q&As). 

• Execute community engagement tasks under guidance (responding to comments, identifying relevant accounts to follow, and proposing meaningful engagements) while following an approved engagement playbook. 

• Assist with content development: research, drafting short-form copy, selecting existing brand-approved assets, and creating simple content briefs for designers or editors. 

• Track performance and compile weekly snapshots (follower growth, reach/impressions, engagements, top posts, and learnings) with clear takeaways and next-step recommendations. 

• Collaborate with PR teammates and cross-functional partners (brand, social, legal, customer care) to ensure content is accurate, on-brand, and aligned to channel goals. 

• Follow publishing and governance guidelines (brand voice, privacy, accessibility, disclosures, and information security) and escalate sensitive community issues to the PR lead. 

What You’ll Learn 

• How a PR-led social channel is built—from strategy and editorial planning to publishing, community management, and measurement. 

• How to translate trends into on-brand content ideas for an 18–34 audience, using data to validate what’s working. 

• Best practices for community engagement, moderation, escalation, and protecting brand reputation. 

• How to report social performance with clear insights and recommendations (not just metrics). 

Required Qualifications 

• Currently pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Communications, Public Relations, Marketing, Journalism, Digital Media, or a related field (or equivalent experience/portfolio). 

• Demonstrated interest in social media and creator/internet culture; familiarity with Instagram formats (Reels, Stories, carousels) and what drives engagement. 

• Strong writing and editing skills for short-form copy (captions, headlines, on-screen text) with attention to tone and accuracy. 

• Reliable, self-directed, and comfortable working remotely (organized, responsive, and able to manage deadlines across time zones). 

Preferred Qualifications 

• Prior experience managing a social account (school org, internship, personal project, or creator work) and/or a portfolio of content you can share. 

• Experience with social publishing and analytics tools (e.g., Meta Business Suite) and comfort pulling basic performance metrics. 

• Basic design/video editing skills (Canva, Adobe Express, CapCut, Premiere, or similar) and familiarity with accessibility best practices (captions, alt text). 

• Interest in entrepreneurship, small business, technology news, or brand storytelling.
