Listen, we get it.
From weeks of perfectly planned nutritious meals to DIY gifts and decorations that can save you a ton of cash, Pinterest has lots of potential to make your life better.
… unless you can’t seem to tear yourself away from your carefully-curated Pinterest boards at work, that is.
To say nothing of your home life. That went out a long time ago.
But what if Pinterest was your work?
10 Companies Now Hiring for Pinterest Jobs
As social media continues to take over expand into every corner of our real-life lives, businesses are catching onto its importance in marketing.
That’s why they’re hiring Pinterest fanatics to increase their brand recognition across the board — Pinterest boards, that is.
If you’re crazy enough about pinning to take it to the professional level, one of these 10 Pinterest jobs might just be for you.
1. Tastemade — Social Media Manager, Pinterest
Who doesn’t love food and travel? They might be the two best things the world has to offer.
(Oh, right, I guess there’s love, too.)
Lucky for you pinning fiends, Tastemade, which describes itself as “community of food & travel lovers on a mission to connect the world through video,” is hiring a social media manager specializing in — you guessed it — Pinterest.
If you’ve got some experience managing multiple social media channels, you might be eligible to join their Santa Monica, California-based team.
You’ll get full medical, dental and vision benefits, flexible vacation days and 11 paid holidays, and stock options on top of your “competitive” salary (according to Glassdoor, the national average is $37,500).
2. Computer Upgrade King — Social Media Intern
Want to break into the biz for the first time?
Powhatan, Virginia, company Computer Upgrade King is hiring a social media intern. And although it looks like some of your main responsibilities will be Facebook and Twitter, the listing mentions “avid” Pinterest use as a required skill.
The best part about this position? You don’t need prior experience.
You just need to be a student interested in business and marketing — and, of course, passionate about technology. As in all things, excellent writing and communication skills won’t hurt.
The internship pays $10 per hour, and you’ll commit 30-40 hours per week. Apply here.
3. Alexandra Nesterak Events — Wedding Planning Intern
Here’s another internship that’ll keep you pinning all day long: How better to plan a wedding than with DIY-happy, drool-worthy-venue-filled Pinterest wedding boards?
In fact, the listing for internship specifically asks applicants if they “spend hours on Pinterest fangirling over tablescapes, flowers and decor.”
Although you’ll get a great recommendation, college credit and unlimited coffee, this internship is unfortunately unpaid — but it’s a great way to get your foot in the door of a lucrative industry.
So if you’re a college student interested in events coordination, based in the Washington, D.C. area and available from July 10 to Nov. 30, click here to apply.

Want the least boring job at a law firm?

That means you’ll “plan and implement” all the firm’s paid and unpaid social media campaigns, across Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn… and Pinterest.
Although the listing specifies you need experience working with Facebook in advertising, it doesn’t give a set required amount of time. And although you need a bachelor’s degree in a “related field,” there’s lots of room for variety in that descriptor, too.
Your compensation plan includes health, dental, vision and a 401(k). Here’s where to apply.
5. Live Nation — Social Media Marketing Specialist
Yep, that Live Nation.
The king company of entertainment and ticketing is hiring a social media marketing specialist based in Boca Raton, Florida, to build engagement on its Florida-specific newsletters and social media campaigns, including Pinterest.
You’ll also get to develop digital and social artist promotional plans… which sounds a lot like creating fangirl Pinterest boards devoted to Taylor Swift.
You’ll need a bachelor’s degree in marketing, advertising or communications, plus two years of experience — but in return, you’ll get paid parental leave and super-discounted concert tickets, obvs.
