At Gesture we believe that the world has become overly transactional and, collectively, we have lost our focus on what really matters, meaningful connections. Our worldview marries the digital and organic side of life to establish balance and create meaningful moments that matter, shaping the future of how we interact with each other and the brands that help us express our unique identity.
Like our product we aim to create a deeper sense of connection and meaning in the workplace. This starts with you. We believe that surrounding you with a team of amazing humans, providing you with opportunities to continuously grow, and working on a vision meant to make the world a better place makes our opportunity truly unique.
As our Social Media Intern, you’ll help shape the voice, vibe, and reach of Gesture across platforms like TikTok, Instagram, LinkedIn, and beyond. You’ll be part strategist, part storyteller, part trend-chaser—with a strong dose of creativity and community intuition.
