Overview & Responsibilities

Flytedesk is looking for a self-motivated and reliable intern with a great attitude to join our Publisher team. The right candidate will be a “jack-of-all-trades” who can jump on a varied set of projects as they come up. Projects will range from logistical (i.e. file organization) to larger sales research requests. The right candidates may also be able to take on tasks in marketing, data collection, design, etc.

Your Team

You will report to Piper Jackson-Sevy, our VP of Growth, and work with Megan Graft (Director of Publisher Development), Leen Obeidat (Supply Operations Associate), and Kit Summers (Operations Manager).

Culture

We hire people, not functions. We look for self-starters, who can problem-solve as well as they can execute. We look for grit and kindred-spirits, we’re a family and we work for each other to get where we want to go. We don’t want to hire people who just fit into our culture, we want people who help shape it.

We want you to have a good time as you’re working hard to help build our collective future. That means endless snacks, a coffee shop house account, birthday parties, dogs in the office, and an expectation that we don’t take ourselves too seriously. 

Values

Our culture is built on a small, but core group of values. When we meet tension points, it’s easy to reference the following values and see what the right decision is. We make a point to call these out in our job descriptions because we’ve learned that someone whose values and motivations are aligned with Flytedesk’s will most likely be successful at Flytedesk (and vice versa). Please take the time to read and understand our values - they’re the biggest indicator if this is going to be a good match.

• Make it work - our biggest successes have come from doing things that couldn't be done, we are a collection of individuals who are willing to do what it takes 
• Lean, rabid, hungry - we get excited at doing a lot with a little and are motivated by this mentality 
• Remember why we started - flytedesk was founded on the idea of empowering student journalism, every decision we make is for the benefit of the publishers we work with 
• Growth as a goal - we put the team ahead of individual, are constantly asking better of ourselves and one another, and check our egos at the door to move the company forward
• Be all-in - to put it bluntly: this isn’t a job for people who aren’t 100% committed, being on the ground floor and in the trenches of a high-growth startup takes dedication to the cause
