About: Lone Design Club is building the future of retail by connecting the world's most exciting emerging brands with physical retail spaces.

Since launching in 2018, we've built a community of over 35,000 fashion, beauty, lifestyle and home brands, helping more than 4,000 brands launch into physical retail through pop-ups, partnerships and retail activations.

Today, we partner with some of the world's leading retail destinations—including Ingka Centres (IKEA), Value Retail, Pradera, Hammerson and The Crown Estate—to create exciting retail experiences that champion independent brands and bring fresh, ever-changing concepts to high streets and shopping destinations across the UK and Europe.

Lone Design Club is looking for a highly creative Content & Community Intern to help shape and grow the Lone Design Club brand across social media.

Working directly alongside our Social Media Coordinator, Founder, Chief of Staff and wider marketing team, the successful applicant will create content that showcases our community, celebrates the brands we work with and documents the journey of building one of the UK's most exciting retail businesses.

This is not a traditional marketing intern-level role – the Content & Community Intern will have genuine creative ownership from day one, helping define how Lone Design Club shows up across Instagram, TikTok and LinkedIn through beautiful content, compelling storytelling and authentic community building.  From filming behind-the-scenes at pop-up launches and retail activations to interviewing founders, creating trend-led content and producing social-first campaigns, the Intern will play a key role in growing our audience and bringing our brand to life.  We're looking for someone who is enthralled with content, naturally creative, has exceptional taste and understands how to create social media that people genuinely want to watch, save and share.

Responsibilities of the Content & Community Intern

Content Creation:

  • Plan, create, film and edit engaging social-first content across Instagram, TikTok and LinkedIn.
  • Capture behind-the-scenes content across the business, including retail launches, brand activations, events and founder moments.
  • Produce short-form video content including Reels, TikToks and founder-led content.
  • Create photography, graphics and visual assets for social media.

  • Stay ahead of platform updates, trends and emerging content formats.

Community Building:

  • Help grow and engage the Lone Design Club community across social media.
  • Support conversations with brands, founders, creators and partners.
  • Identify opportunities for collaborations, user-generated content and community storytelling.
  • Help create campaigns that strengthen our community and increase engagement.

Brand & Creative:

  • Help maintain a premium and consistent visual identity across every platform.
  • Research fashion, retail and social media trends to inspire new ideas.
  • Contribute creative ideas for campaigns, launches and content series.
  • Monitor leading fashion, lifestyle and luxury brands for inspiration and best practice.
  • Ensure all content reflects the Lone Design Club aesthetic and brand values.

Events & Experiences:

  • Attend retail launches, networking events, pop-ups and community events to capture live content.
  • Create real-time social media coverage during launches and activations.
  • Support campaign shoots and content creation days.

What Lone Design Club is looking for…

Required:
