Community & brand intern - hands-on + equity potential

About the Internship

We are launching the pilot of UpDesignr and are looking for motivated interns to support the development and early operations of the platform.

Fast fashion still wins — not because people don’t care, but because it’s fast, fun, and cheap.

Most sustainable fashion asks people to buy basics and wear them forever — noble, but not always exciting.

UpDesignr offers something different: custom, sustainable, on-trend remakes of existing clothes — fashion that feels new, without buying new. We’re building a tech-enabled platform that makes circular fashion as seamless as shopping online, connecting customers with local makers and designer-approved remake or repair designs. Each piece carries provenance, craftsmanship, and community built in, giving clothes a true second life.

UpDesignr is an early-stage circular fashion venture within the FoxandFriends.agency open start-up studio.

At FoxandFriends.agency , people help build start-ups without being hired or having to found a company alone. They contribute to ventures in formation and earn ownership based on what they help build.

Interns are contributors too: you’ll take real responsibility, help shape the project, and have the potential to earn an equity stake based on your contributions.

As a Community and Brand intern you will:

• Support visibility and storytelling for the first design drop
• Grow and engage our community across platforms
• Assist in shaping UpDesignr’s early brand voice and content

We welcome:

• Students (Bachelor or Master)
• Recent graduates
• Individuals eager to gain real start-up experience

Fashion-related experience or training is welcome, but not mandatory.

FoxandFriends.agency values diversity and inclusion. All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply.

What You Will Learn
