FIA Fall Internship Opportunity

The Fusion Industry Association (FIA) is hiring for a paid, part-time intern this fall with in-person work in Washington, D.C.

The FIA is the unified voice of the fusion industry, working to transform the energy system with commercially viable fusion power. It represents the interests of its members: the private companies that are commercializing clean, safe, available fusion energy.

We are seeking a motivated individual to intern part-time with us, reporting directly to the Membership Manager. The successful candidate will be responsible for writing blog posts on developing fusion news and policy activity, contributing to social media outreach, and will have the opportunity to develop a project related to FIA priorities, based on professional and personal interests.

Key Responsibilities:

• Writing blog posts based on FIA priorities and fusion news for our website.
• Assisting in social media outreach (X, LinkedIn, Bluesky, YouTube, Instagram) and developing assets.
• Opportunity to develop a self-led project, based on personal and professional interests, related to FIA priorities in government partnerships, regulations, and growing the fusion energy economy.
• Assisting with member tracking and database management for new members.
• Supporting Capitol Hill advocacy and outreach efforts.
• Contributing to the overall success of the FIA and supporting staff operations across various initiatives.

Requirements:

• Strong writing and communications skills
• Ability to manage multiple projects and work independently

Dates: We are looking for someone to start as soon as possible and work through December. 

Location: It is expected that candidates will be based in Washington, DC, for in-person work, although elements of the position will be able to be conducted remotely. 

If you are passionate about fusion energy and are interested in learning more about fusion policy, regulatory activity, and industry developments, we encourage you to apply for this opportunity. (Physics and scientific background is not required.)

TO APPLY: Applicants for the role should send a 1.) cover letter, 2.) writing sample, and 3.) resume to Sara Eaves, Membership Manager, at Sara@FusionIndustryAssociation.org. Please be prepared to supply references on request.
