Marketing & Content Creation Intern — Cross Creek Landscape Design + Build Coeur d'Alene, ID | Unpaid | College Credit | Part-Time (15–20 hrs/week)
Who We Are
Cross Creek Landscape Design + Build exists because Jesus Christ is the way, the truth, and the life.
What started with one man, a cold bathroom floor, and a surrendered heart has grown into a $2.5 million luxury landscape design and build firm serving North Idaho and beyond. But growth was never the goal. Bringing heaven to earth was.
We don't just build outdoor living spaces. We build them as an act of worship — designing environments where families rest, reconnect, and experience something beautiful. Every project, every decision, every hire flows from our obedience to Christ. We take Colossians 3:23 seriously:
"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters."
This isn't a company that happens to have Christian owners. This is a ministry that designs and builds.
The Role
If you've been praying about where to invest your time, your talent, and your season of life — read carefully.
We're looking for a Marketing & Content Creation Intern who is creative, self-motivated, and ready to use their gifts in a place that actually stands for something. You'll capture the beauty of what we build, tell the story of who we are, and help grow our presence on Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube — platforms where we believe God can use authentic storytelling to reach real people.
You'll work directly with our founder, Randy McCabe. This role will stretch you, develop you, and give you real-world experience in a company where the mission is not a tagline — it's the reason we show up.
What You'll Do
- Visit job sites and company events to film and photograph our work and our team
- Create and edit short-form video content and static posts for Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube
- Manage a weekly content calendar and post consistently across platforms
- Attend one weekly check-in meeting with Randy (virtual or in-person)
- Receive assigned tasks and execute them independently — you'll be expected to own your work, ask clarifying questions when needed, and deliver without being chased down
- Bring creative ideas and a genuine voice to everything you post
This role rewards self-starters. You will be given direction, assigned tasks, and trusted to carry them out. If you need hand-holding to complete basic responsibilities, this isn't the right fit. If you thrive when given ownership and love checking things off a list — welcome home.
What We're Looking For
- A local student in the Coeur d'Alene / North Idaho area
- Currently enrolled in a college or university program offering internship or practicum credit
- Comfortable behind a camera and capable of editing video content
- Familiar with Instagram and Facebook — bonus points for YouTube Shorts or TikTok-style content
- Someone whose faith is not just part of their life, but the foundation of it
- A person of integrity who does what they say they'll do
- Aligned with our mission: loving people like Jesus, building things worth being proud of
What You'll Gain
- College credit (we'll partner with your program coordinator to make it official)
- A professional portfolio of real content from a growing, values-driven company
- Direct mentorship from a founder who built something meaningful from nothing
- Experience managing social media for a brand with a clear identity and a Kingdom mission
- The chance to use your creativity as an act of service — and maybe even worship
Details
- Location: Coeur d'Alene, ID — on-site content capture is required; some flexibility for remote work
- Hours: 15–20 hours per week, flexible scheduling
- Compensation: Unpaid — college credit eligible
- Reports to: Randy McCabe, Founder & Owner
Application Questions
Please answer all of the following questions in your application. Be honest. Be yourself. We're not looking for the "right" answer — we're looking for the real one.
- What is the most important thing in your life, and why?
- Describe your experience with content creation — what platforms have you used, what have you created, and what does your best work look like? Include links or examples if you have them.
- Have you managed social media for a business, organization, club, or ministry before? If so, describe what you did and what results you saw.
- What equipment do you currently have access to for filming and editing content? (Phone, camera, laptop, editing software, etc.)
- Tell us about a time you were given a task or project and had to complete it largely on your own. What did you do, and what was the outcome?
- What is your current school, program of study, and expected graduation date? Has your program confirmed that this internship would qualify for academic credit?
- Why Cross Creek? Not the experience, not the resume line — why this company, this mission, at this season of your life? Make your case. We want to know what God is doing in you right now and why you believe this internship is part of it.
