Bombfell Style/Ops Intern (NY)


Men’s Fashion Startup Company.
You have an eye for fashion. You're a trendsetter. And you're a whiz at Photoshop.

You're ambitious, smart and anal as hell. You're efficient and organized. You're not afraid to give your opinion. You always want to get your hands dirty. 

THE ROLE:
Join an early stage, rapidly growing fashion startup selling REAL STUFF that users happily PAY FOR. We're looking for someone who will eat operations for lunch and ask for more.  

You'll whip our inventory into shape, then tell us what we're doing is stupid and lay out how we can do it better. You'll write blog posts, provide customer support, measure clothes and pack boxes. You'll do whatever it takes to keep the wheels moving, because that's what we all do and that's what makes startups awesome.

Most importantly, you'll learn how to create order out of chaos, how to hold things together with paper clips and chewing gum and other real-world skills for startups that you won't learn in a classroom (and you will be rewarded with a stipend and unlimited MetroCard and never go hungry as long as you're with us).

QUALIFICATIONS: 
-- College degree and relevant work experience preferred
-- Must be SUPER DUPER DUPER detail-oriented!!! 
-- Must be willing to do manual labor (able to lift 50 lbs)
-- Must be able to do data entry
-- Must be tech-savvy and have Excel and PC proficiency  
-- Must have excellent written and verbal communication skills
-- Excellent interpersonal, customer service, organizational and problem-solving skills
