Social Media & Content Creator - Intern LA (Remote)
About ZOVU
ZOVU is an all-in-one operating system for restaurants: point of sale, reservations, staff planning, loyalty and back-office data in one platform. We charge no monthly subscription, we earn a small margin per transaction, so we only make money when our restaurants do. We're building in the Netherlands, the UK and the US. Alongside the restaurant platform we're launching a consumer app: restaurant discovery, events, experiences, a food feed with a reels section, and in-app ordering. Launch markets are Los Angeles and the Netherlands. We are pre-launch. Zero restaurants live, zero followers, nothing to inherit.
About the role
You own social media for two brands: ZOVU (B2B) — speaking to restaurant owners and managers. LinkedIn and Instagram. Product demos, founder content, the "why we don't charge a monthly fee" story, industry commentary. The consumer app — speaking to people who eat out. Instagram and TikTok. Reels, food content, trends, and building the audience that will make the food feed worth opening on day one.
Responsibilities
- Plan and run the content calendar for both brands
- Shoot and edit video, Reels, TikToks, Shorts
- Design graphics, carousels, story templates and a visual identity that holds up across both brands
- Turn product screens and features into content people actually watch
- Build and film founder-led / behind-the-scenes content as we go from zero to launch
- Grow and reply to the community, comments, DMs
- Support influencer outreach in LA and the Netherlands for the food feed
- Prepare for on-location restaurant shoots once venues go live
- Report on what's working, monthly, in plain numbers

- You can design (Canva, Figma, Adobe, or similar)
- You can shoot on a phone and make it look intentional
