Social Media & Content Intern

About the role

You will run day-to-day social media for all three brands: writing the posts, building and maintaining the social calendar, scheduling through Buffer, engaging with the community, keeping our creative asset library organized, and reporting on what works. You will turn our long-form content (YouTube videos, articles, webinars, Andrew's testimony and media appearances) into platform-native posts, and you will write original short copy of your own. This is a writing job first and a scheduling job second. If you can take a 20‑minute attorney video and pull five posts out of it that each sound like a person, not a firm, you will do well here.

Location: 4709 Golf Rd, Suite 1100, Skokie, IL 60076. Job type: Part‑time employee.

Responsibilities

• Own a rolling 4‑week social calendar for Gordon Law Group, Gordon Tax, and Digital Asset Tax across LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, X, and YouTube community posts, tailored to each platform's format and audience.
• Write post copy, captions, hooks, and thread text; repurpose articles, videos, and webinar clips into platform‑native posts; draft Google Business Profile posts weekly.
• Schedule and publish through Buffer with an approval step; request clips, thumbnails, and edits from the videographer; build simple graphics in Canva within brand guidelines.
• Keep the shared creative library in order: clear file naming, one folder structure across all three brands, approved versions marked, source files and exports kept together, and nothing lives only on your desktop.
• Monitor comments, messages, mentions, and Google and Yelp reviews daily; respond directly and promptly within brand guidelines; thank reviewers; route anything that looks like a legal or tax question about someone's situation to the right person rather than answering it yourself.
• Track reach, engagement, follower growth, and link clicks by brand and platform; deliver a short monthly readout with three things to keep doing and three to change.
• Keep every post inside Illinois attorney advertising rules and the internal term list; apply the correct disclaimer per platform; flag anything you are unsure about before it posts.
• Keep an eye on crypto tax news, IRS announcements, and what competitors are posting; bring timely ideas to the weekly content meeting.

Requirements

• 1 to 3 years running organic social for a brand, agency, or creator, with examples you can show.
• Strong writing and editing – able to make a dense topic short and clear without making it wrong.
• Working knowledge of LinkedIn, Instagram, X, Facebook, and YouTube, including native formats (carousels, Reels, threads, community posts).
• Hands‑on with Buffer (or a close equivalent you can pick up fast) and Canva.
• Strong file organization and creative asset management habits – keep naming conventions, folder structures, and version control tidy so anyone on the team can find the right file.
• Organized and self‑directed – keep a calendar full four weeks out without being chased.
• Careful with facts – anything you are not sure of gets checked or flagged, not posted.

Qualifications

• Experience in a regulated industry (legal, financial services, healthcare, insurance) where copy goes through approval.
• Interest in cryptocurrency, tax, or policy – you do not need to be an investor, but you should be curious.
• Experience with HubSpot or another CRM for tracking
