Social Media Content Creator

Job Details

Adesso Bakeshop is a fast-growing Brooklyn bakery making sourdough cookies, Italian amaretti, and mochi brownies. We sell at Fort Greene Market on Saturdays, pop up at Sociale in Carroll Gardens on Sundays, and ship online orders through our Shopify store.

We are looking for a Social Media Content Creator to help us create better photo, video, design, and written content this summer.

This role is a good fit for someone who loves food, social media, photography, video, writing, design, and small brands with personality. You will help us capture what is already happening at Adesso: baking, packing, markets, pop-ups, product drops, customer moments, and behind-the-scenes work.

We want someone who can help us not only make content, but also come up with creative ideas for posts, videos, campaigns, and ways to tell the Adesso story.

This is a hands-on creative role. Some work can be done remotely, but you will also need to come to the kitchen, markets, and pop-ups, and other locations to take photos and shoot video.

Schedule

Flexible part-time summer schedule.

Estimated 10-20 hours per week, depending on availability and workload.

Some possible work times:

Weekly content planning meeting

Thursday or Friday evening kitchen content capture

Saturday Fort Greene Market visits

Sunday Sociale pop-up visits

Remote editing, writing, photo/video shoots, and design work

We can build a schedule based on availability.

• Strong writing skills
• Good eye for visual details
• Familiarity with Instagram, TikTok, Reels, and Stories
• Experience with Canva, Photoshop, InDesign, CapCut, Lightroom, Premiere Pro, Resolve, or similar tools is a plus
• Creative thinker who can bring ideas, not just wait for assignments
• Curious about what makes people stop scrolling, save, share, and visit in person
• Organized and able to keep track of files, ideas, and deadlines
• Able to take feedback and revise work
• Reliable, thoughtful, and easy to communicate with
• Comfortable working around a kitchen, markets, and customers
• Excited to help a small growing brand create content

Why Adesso

Adesso Bakeshop is growing quickly, and this is a chance to help shape the voice and look of the brand during an exciting stage.

You’ll work directly with the founders and get real hands-on experience with food photography, short-form video, social media planning, writing, design, and small business marketing.

This is not a coffee-run internship. We want someone who can help us make useful, fun, engaging content that gets people excited to visit our markets, try our products, and follow the brand.

Pay

Paid hourly position.

$24-$28/hour
