Activewear Fashion Internship

Golf, tennis and active sports of all kinds are surging in popularity and so is the demand for fashion to wear on the course, courts and streets.  A Denver-based sales representative for several national leading sports brands for women and men is looking for a part-time seasonal intern to assist with preparation, set-up and presentation at upcoming Denver trade shows, October 3-5, 2022 and in February, 2023.

The successful candidate will have a passion for activewear fashion and a willingness to learn the ins and outs of trade shows. The intern will assist with booth set up and teardown, and help present samples to wholesale accounts, including boutique owners, buyers for specialty shops and pro shop merchandisers. Order entry, tracking of customer inquiries, informing customers about product specifics and guiding them through the collections are among the job specifics the intern can also learn.

The internship can be tailored to the individual if it’s for educational credit. The successful candidate will also be able to get insights into additional aspects of the wholesale business, including customer service, manufacturing, sample management, online sales platforms, sales generation and follow-through, marketing and public relations.

The successful candidate will be:

–       A hard-working, creative self-starter who wants to gain experience in the activewear industry.

–        While the intern needs to be at least 18 years old, have a good driving record and their own transportation, this is also a great opportunity for a retiree or career-changer.

–       Previous fashion and retail experience is a plus.

–       Compensation will be commensurate with experience
