We pride ourselves on being a team of grafters, innovators and visionaries. But above all else, we are a family. Our family is ambitious and hard-working. We're committed and consistent. We're passionate and progressive. Simply put, we're different.

We are dedicated to finding talented individuals to join our Gymshark family, people that can bring an exemplary level of skill and add to our culture by sharing the same values and beliefs that make us who we are - visionary. If you've got something no-one else has, we want you. Be a part of inventing Gymshark's future.

We're different because we celebrate difference. That's what the Gymshark family is - diverse, inclusive, equal.

A little bit about the role

When you work for us, you're more than a placement student - you join our rapidly expanding Gymshark family. We give people the tools they need to reach further, go faster and be the best version of themselves. We work hard, sure, but we have fun while we do it. Sound like you?

We are looking for an intern to join our Copy Team for an exciting 13-month placement starting in July 2022. You will learn how to take a concept from initial idea to a full-fledged campaign, helping to direct and develop along the way. You will develop skills from concept creation and development, art directing photoshoots, developing brand copy, storyboarding videos, location scouting, retouch, postproduction, graphic design, critical path management and more.

What you'll be doing
You will gain experience in the following areas:

  • Learning how to communicate and develop the Gymshark tone of voice across all channels.
  • Support the team with Business as Usual (BAU) and ad-hoc requests from the business to create copy for a variety of channels which include email, social, website, and trading.
  • Work on a wide variety of briefs to learn how to produce high-level copy for a variety of projects.
  • Learn how to develop messaging for the product and brand campaigns.
  • Learn how to write to an audience - our copy goes to literally millions of individuals, what we say and how we say it matters. Learn to follow and align to our tone of voice.
  • Communicate with teams across the business to assist with copy requests.

What you'll need
We're not about box-ticking, but if this profile speaks to you all the better:

  • Some experience writing and communicating to a focused audience and/or with a focused voice.
  • An ability to work both proactively and reactively in the research, development and delivery of written content.
  • A passion - and respect - for the power of words and the impact they can have.
  • Ability to work independently and in team environment
  • Ability to plan and manage time effectivelyโ€ฏ
  • A beady eye for proofing, attention to detail when it comes to people's responses to language.
  • Excellent interpersonal skills - being able to quickly establish effective relationships at all levels (internal & external).
  • Ability to follow creative direction whilst also thinking outside the box.

What you'll get
There's never been a better time to work for Gymshark. We are growing fast, and we want ambitious people to join us for the ride. We offer a diverse and inclusive culture, a supportive and sociable work environment, plus ample opportunities for professional growth, development and networking.
