Design & Presentations Internship | Fall 2026
Who We Are
Brilliant Agency is a respected, rapidly growing marketing agency focused on family‑oriented brands, with nearly 25 team members across the US. We provide the resources our team needs to work effectively without being confined to a cubicle or stuffy office, fostering connection through costume contests, virtual happy hours, Slack GIFs, and a strong sense of community.
What We Do
We specialize in PR, Influencer, and Social Media services for consumer lifestyle brands across categories including baby/maternity, toys/games, food/beverage, and CPG.
Our Dream Team Member
Resourceful, committed, and deliberate with a strong eye for design, layout, and visual storytelling; able to translate a specific vision into clean, compelling slides for visual storytelling; comfortable working in Canva (presentations + graphics); understands how to simplify information visually (not just make things “look good”); detail‑oriented with typography, spacing, and consistency; open to feedback and quick iterations; interested in how design supports strategy, storytelling, and client work; excited about building a strong career foundation post‑graduation. Video and post‑production editing capabilities are a plus but not required.
Job Description
We offer two internship sessions – Spring/Summer (January‑May/August) and Fall/Winter (June‑August‑December) – and many interns stay for multiple sessions. Active interns get first pick for the following semester internship spots. This is not an internship to organize files or provide admin support; your work will make a meaningful contribution to the agency and its clients. You will gain true agency experience, collaborate with different departments, and get exposure to agency life if that aligns with your long‑term career goals. Interns must meet deadlines, respond to messages promptly, and communicate proactively with their team.

- Build and update presentations using Brilliant templates in Canva
- Help improve slide structure, flow, and clarity for internal and client decks

- Graphic Design Support: Create simple graphics for internal and client needs (social mockups, one‑pagers, etc.)
- Creative Collaboration: Work with account teams to bring ideas to life visually
- Share ideas for improving templates and design systems
Internship Structure
Summer/Fall Session (2026): starting June 1 (or sooner) and ending December 18. While these are our preferred timelines, we remain flexible with potential start and end dates based on candidate availability.
Requirements
- You must be a rising sophomore, junior, or senior.
