UnitedMasters | Translation • New York, NY

4h • $20 • Hybrid

About The Position

Translation is a well-established independent agency and thriving music business, built to help ambitious brands harness the power of culture to solve their biggest challenges. As a unique mix of experts in culture, technology, and storytelling, we are united by a passion to grow brands in ways that advertising alone can never do.
We are an entrepreneurial business – not a traditional “ad agency.” That means we value resourcefulness and tenacity just as much as we value creativity and intelligence. We’re unapologetically ambitious, but we’re also a tight-knit crew.
You should apply for the Creative - Copywriter internship if…
You love concepting big ideas, you’re hungry to write anything from a TV script to long-form prose to social post copy, you know to speak in a brand’s “voice”, you can write a pithy, provocative prompt for an A.I. agent, and you’re a cultural connoisseur who’s up to date on what’s now/what’s next/what’s not for long.
As an intern at UMT, you are an integrated member of the team. You’ll spend 10 weeks gaining the kind of "hands-on" experience that actually moves the needle.
Real Work, Real Impact: You’ll be embedded in client and internal projects. You won't just watch—you'll contribute to deliverables that go out the door.
Master the Industry Stack: We’ll get you under the hood of the professional tools, software, and platforms used by the best in the business, ensuring you leave with a market-ready skill set.
Curated Professional Development: Beyond daily tasks, you’ll participate in "The Come Up" workshops designed to bridge the gap between classroom theory and industry execution.
Direct Access & Mentorship: You aren't just a face in the crowd. You’ll receive 1:1 mentorship from seasoned pros and have roundtables from Intern Alumni and UMT executives to learn how the business scales.
Network for the Future: Build lasting professional bonds with a cohort of high-performing peers and industry leaders in the heart of Brooklyn.
