<div class="content-intro"><p>Corcept is leading the way in the research and development of cortisol modulators, molecules that regulate cortisol activity at the glucocorticoid receptor (GR). To date, we have discovered more than 1,000 selective proprietary cortisol modulators.</p> <p>In 2012, we received FDA approval of Korlym® (mifepristone), the first approved treatment for hypercortisolism (Cushing’s syndrome).</p> <p>Today, our team and collaborators continue to unlock the possibilities of cortisol modulation as a way to treat serious diseases. With more than 30 ongoing studies across a wide range of disease areas, including endocrinology, oncology, metabolism, and neurology, we remain dedicated to advancing the possibilities of cortisol modulation.</p> <p><strong>What began as a ripple of scientific truth</strong> is now poised to unleash a sea change of discovery representing a fundamental shift in the way we understand and treat disease.</p></div><p>Come spend your summer working with passionate colleagues and inspirational leaders, all while gaining world-class experience in one of the fast-growing biotechs in the Bay Area.</p> <p><strong>Responsibilities:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Help develop the communications strategies and plans to articulate who Corcept is and why its work is meaningful across external and internal audiences&nbsp;</li> <li>Support work to communicate Corcept’s vision and scientific progress across all therapeutic areas and appropriate channels through storytelling, targeted messaging and creative campaigns&nbsp; <ul> <li>Contribute to social media editorial calendar creation and tactical execution and ensure overall alignment with division strategy and goals</li> <li>Play a key role in brand communications projects, including website content, social media content and design&nbsp;</li> <li>Work with our public relations agency to help bring key initiatives to life</li> </ul> </li> <li>Manage internal employee communications by working to improve the functionality, relevance and offering of CenterCORT (intranet), TV screens, events and researching/developing new tactics in internal communications</li> <li>Deliver a department presentation at the end of the program</li> <li>Participate as a member of the 2026 intern team group project that includes a company-wide presentation</li> </ul> <p><strong>Preferred Skills, Qualifications and Technical Proficiencies:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Knowledgeable in Microsoft Word, Outlook, PowerPoint, Excel, Social Media sites preferred&nbsp;</li> <li>Experience and interest in communications,&nbsp;public relations and/or journalism preferred</li> <li>Excellent verbal and written communication skills&nbsp;</li> <li>Ability to drive results autonomously and with limited guidance</li> <li>Must be able to complete at least 10 consecutive weeks between June and August and it is a full-time internship (40 hours per week)</li> <li>Must be able to work at our Redwood City office for the duration of the internship, no relocation available</li> </ul> <p>The pay range that the Company reasonably expects to pay for this headquarters-based position is $26/hr - $32/hr; the pay ultimately offered may vary based on legitimate considerations, including geographic location, job-related knowledge, skills, experience and education.</p> <p style="text-align: center;"><strong>&nbsp;</strong>Applicants must be currently authorized to work in the United States on a full-time basis.</p><div class="content-conclusion"><p>For information on how Corcept collects, uses, discloses, protects, and otherwise processes personal information and an explanation of the rights and choices available to you with respect to your personal information, please refer to our <a href="https://corcept.com/wp-content/uploads/CCPA-NOTICE-FOR-CALIFORNIA-RESIDENTS-FINAL.3.14.pdf">Privacy Notice link</a>.&nbsp;</p> <p>Corcept appreciates the commitment and hard work of all our team members as we strive to discover and develop novel treatments for patients with serious unmet medical needs.</p> <p style="text-align: center;"><strong>&nbsp;</strong><strong>Please visit our website at: <a href="https://www.corcept.com/">https://www.corcept.com/</a></strong></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Corcept is an Equal Opportunity Employer</strong></p> <p><em>Corcept will not conduct interviews via text message or messaging platforms and will not ask you to download anything as part of your interview.&nbsp; Though we use third-party tools to help with advertising our jobs, please be vigilant in checking that the communication is in fact coming from Corcept.</em></p> <p><strong><em>&nbsp;</em></strong></p></div>
