2027 Seasonal Social Media Intern (Onsite)

Kitty Hawk Kites is looking for a high-energy Social Media Intern to join our team this summer on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. You will work directly with our Content and Social Media Manager to capture the fun of our kite company, surf shops, Life is Good stores and our online stores, all while producing content that will drive sales across all departments!

Internship Details

Minimum of 12 weeks, scheduled between May 1, 2027-August 31, 2027

What You’ll Do

Help us capture the action! You’ll use a mix of DSLR cameras and iPhones to shoot everything from high-flying kite sessions to our latest beach apparel and lifestyle gear.
Assist in setting up fun "studio" or lifestyle photoshoots. You’ll work with local models and staff to make our new arrivals look "cool" and aspirational for our online store and retail.
Help us brainstorm ideas to produce 2–3 short-form videos (TikToks/Reels) a day. This includes "Day in the Life" clips, employee interviews, and fun Q&As with the kite community!
Stay on top of the latest sounds and trends on TikTok and Instagram, finding creative ways to make them work for the surf and kite world.
Get hands-on experience with the "business side" of social media—scheduling posts across all platforms, brainstorming holiday campaigns, and helping us monitor Meta ads and analytics to see what’s working!

What We’re Looking For:

You have a "creative eye" and love finding fun in any situation!
You’re comfortable whether you’re behind the lens, giving ideas, helping direct a shot, or even occasionally appearing in a video to show off a new product.
You’re high-energy and love being outdoors!
You’re happy to be on your feet at the beach, on the dunes or in the shop, capturing the action where it happens.
You enjoy the fast-paced nature of social media and can quickly turn raw clips into a fun, polished Reel or TikTok that people actually want to watch!
Strong attention to detail and good follow-through
Comfortable with numbers, Excel, Outlook and Windows, and quick to learn new software
A self-starter who works well on your own and as part of a team
Good communication skills and a willingness to learn
Commitment to Kitty Hawk Kites' core values
