We're looking for a Design + Production Intern
Palmes is a Copenhagen-based menswear brand with roots in tennis culture for wearing on and off the court, rooted in the belief that tennis should be for the many; not the few. We want to show how tennis can be a vehicle for personal growth, for forming new friendships and for having fun.
Now, we're looking for an intern to join our Copenhagen HQ. As we are a newly-founded company with an all-hands-on-deck approach, your day-to-day will be incredibly diverse.
The role includes tasks such as:
Helping to prepare and update tech packs to be shared with factories
Create colour, fabric and style overviews per season
Assisting with trims and packaging orders
Review all incoming prototypes and samples to provide feedback to manufacturers in collaboration with the team.
Create and maintain production overview for both sample developments and full productions
Maintain and update our product cost tracking overview
Maintain and update our fabric and materials archive
Review and update artwork files for production
Assist with planning and executing photoshoots.
Day-to-day tasks that relate to the operations in a small start-up company. This can be anything from packing orders (as mentioned, we're all-hands-on-deck!), handling customer-service related tasks, biking across town with a sample for our pattern-maker and anything in between.
You are:
Detail-oriented, brand-passionate and capable of multi-tasking in a dynamic work environment.
Interested in design, production and pattern-making (one of the three is fine!).
Interested in tennis but this is not a must. If you've played for years, that's amazing. But if you've never held a racquet in your hands, then it's perfectly fine too!
A combination of a creative power engine and structured go-getter.
Written and orally fluent in English.
Currently studying (or have studied) a degree in production or design.
Know your way around Illustrator and InDesign. Photoshop is a plus.
Interested in working in a fun, high-paced and creative environment
Driving license is a plus but not a must.
We offer:
An exciting internship at our Copenhagen HQ where you'll be able to put your own mark on Palmes and be part of a fast-paced entrepreneurial-minded company
The opportunity to grow in a newly-started company
A smaller monthly financial compensation for the internship.
The ideal candidate will be with us as an intern for 6 months. However, if you're only available for 3-5 months, we are open for that as well!
The internship is planned to start once the right candidate has been found. We will be interviewing candidates on an ongoing basis and encourage you to send us your application as soon as possible.
Please send your CV and personal letter, telling us a bit about yourself and your motivation for joining Palmes.
We know that these things can be somewhat nerve-wrecking to apply for but please, do not overthink it or spend two days on it; just tell us a bit about who you are, what you think about our thing here at Palmes and why you would make a good fit for the team.
Kindly send CV and personal letter to founder Nikolaj Hansson at nikolaj@palmes.co.
Thank you — we can't wait to hear from you!
