About our Events Industry Internship Program

This paid summer internship is based at our Portland, Maine headquarters. You’ll take on meaningful work, meet real deadlines, and contribute directly to business operations. The internship program begins in June and runs through August (around 12 weeks). We seek candidates that are within commutable distance to our office and available for a hybrid schedule of 3–4 days per week (minimum 24 hours/week).

We believe a great internship is about more than just the project you're assigned to.

Our program is designed with a 360-degree development philosophy — meaning we invest in the whole professional, not just the role. Interns have access to LinkedIn Learning to build both technical and professional skills beyond their day-to-day work. You'll also have the opportunity to connect with and learn from colleagues across departments, gaining a broader understanding of how a global media and events company operates and how every team contributes to the bigger picture.

Our Commitment to Inclusion

Diversified is a safe, inclusive workplace for people from all backgrounds. We strongly encourage applications from individuals in historically underrepresented groups, including minoritized racial and ethnic communities, the LGBTQIA+ community, and those with disabilities.

About the Position

Diversified’s Admin Portfolio marketing team is looking for a creative, driven Social Media Marketing Intern to help build a social media presence from the ground up. You’ll develop a standardized organic social strategy, create a content calendar framework, and produce real content across multiple platforms for three brands: ASAP, and ASAP's Events, APC and EA Ignite. This is a hands-on role with immediate impact — you won’t just be learning, you’ll be building systems and creating content that the team will continue to use long after your internship ends. You’ll also have the opportunity to capture content, analyze performance data, and present your findings and recommendations to the broader marketing team. If you love social media strategy, visual storytelling, and want to leave your mark on how a global media company shows up online, this project is for you

What You Bring

• Strong writing skills with attention to grammar, tone, and brand voice — you know how to craft copy that fits a platform and an audience

• Photography, video, and visual storytelling skills — comfortable creating content on a smartphone and editing for social platforms; familiarity with Canva or similar design tools is a plus

• A genuine passion for social media and a solid understanding of major platforms — you follow trends, know what performs, and can back it up with data

• Highly organized and creative with strong project management abilities — you can juggle multiple brands, deadlines, and content types without dropping the ball

• Academic background in Marketing, Communications, Digital Media, or a related field

What happens when the program ends?

By the time your internship concludes, you won't just walk away with a project under your belt — you'll leave with a stronger professional network, new skills, and a real understanding of what it means to work across a dynamic, interconnected business. We have been successful at hiring and retaining past interns for full-time, part-time, or temporary opportunities.  We regularly offer opportunities for early career professionals.
