Editorial Intern - Fall

one5c is a climate-action publication aimed at helping our audience identify specific ways they can combat the environmental crisis. We are a fully remote company that currently gets its words out through newsletters and social media, but we’re working to expand.

one5c is hiring an intern to help us save the world. Hero complexes welcome. Reporting to the Associate Editor, the intern will lend day-to-day editorial support to one5c across its channels. But your main job is to learn: Expect to get exposure to all sorts of aspects of journalism. This includes writing for our newsletter, optimizing content for maximum search visibility, fact-checking our longer sustainability guides, keeping a close eye on headlines, and regularly brainstorming ways to keep our ever-evolving publication on the verge of sustainability insights. Like everyone else on the team, our intern will need to be a fountain of ideas, dive headfirst into new platforms, and be comfortable learning and adapting along the way. You should crave a job that feels just a different every day, and comes with that “I’m doing something about the literal biggest problem in the world” buzz.

This is a part-time paid position (20 hours a week) starting late August/early September with a minimum commitment of 3 months. You must be able to log on at 8 AM EST on at least two of the days you work.

You will need to:

Write and fact-check stories.
Help maintain our library of evergreen content.
Curate and report news briefs for our biweekly newsletter.
Take deep dives into the latest reports, findings, and news in the climate sphere and come up ready to explain them to a wider audience.
Help update our digital properties, including our website and social platforms.

You should have:

Some journalism experience, preferably in science and/or environmental journalism (internships and college newspapers count!).
Deep concern about the climate emergency and a readiness to do something about it.
Borderline obsessive detail-orientedness and organizational skills.
An entrepreneurial and self-starting spirit.
A nice can-do attitude. We are nice people here.
An eagerness to learn.
