Who we are:

A house-hold name in design, Sophie Conran’s hugely successful partnership with Portmeirion has been going strong since 2006 with the range sold globally and winning many prestigious awards. With several other license partnerships following, in 2013 Sophie launched sophieconran.com as a central hub to bring all of her license partnerships together and to design and develop exclusive collections.

We are looking for a passionate, enthusiastic and energetic intern with a can-do attitude to join our small and extremely busy team in West London. This is a fantastic opportunity to immerse yourself in all areas of a rapidly growing e-commerce business.

Responsibilities:

No two days will be the same as you provide support across the team. We’re a close-knit team with only 8 of us in total including Sophie that cover all areas of the business, so we are all very hands on and overlap with each other. Responsibilities will include:

• Greeting guests for meetings – preparing drinks etc
• Post office/shop runs
• Data entry
• Ensuring the studio space is always looking immaculate
• Assisting with sample management and logistics
• Assisting on photo-shoots

• Ad-hoc requests from team members

Depending on your experience you may also:

• Support the Brand Manager and Shop Team on website projects
• Support the Creative Co-ordinator on creative asset creation and implementation

For us it is very much about finding the right fit so we are open to the period of time you intern with us and how many days a week, but our preference would be for a 6-month term and 3 day a week minimum.
