Sales Intern | THE/STUDIO - Remote

1 Position Overview

THE/STUDIO is recruiting Graduate Sales & Supply Chain Interns for a fully remote, internationally open role targeting candidates in South Africa, LATAM, Europe, and similar regions. This is a paid internship with a structured transition pathway into a permanent full-time role.

This is an entry-level internship opportunity specifically designed for recent graduates or career switchers with a passion for fashion, apparel, design, or business operations who want to break into consultative inbound sales and global supply chain management. Interns join a practical training academy from day one — learning the mechanics of US-facing custom manufacturing sales and transitioning into a full-time Inside Sales Representative (Creative Specialist) role upon successful completion.

Important: contract structure

Independent Contractor (IC) Role — Not Permanent Employment: This internship transitions into a long-term full-time Independent Contractor partnership — not a traditional permanent employee position. As an IC, you will not be a direct employee of THE/STUDIO and standard South African employment benefits (UIF, provident fund, annual leave provisions under BCEA) will not automatically apply. Understand this distinction fully before applying. Confirm exact contract terms, compensation structure, and IC obligations with THE/STUDIO directly during the recruitment process.
