Marketing & operations Intern

About the role

At headfirst, we're building helmets people actually want to wear. No mushroom look, no fiddly dials. Just clean design, smart technology and a fit that feels made for your head. We're entering an exciting growth phase where online marketing plays a central role, and we're looking for someone who wants to combine marketing, events, socials and operations. Pretty all-round, but in our experience, that's where you learn the most.

What you'll be doing

You'll be fully embedded in the team, from marketing to operations.

  • Marketing: Analysing and building international campaigns
  • Website: Making updates, adjusting copy and images, and supporting e-commerce optimisation
  • Research: Making us smarter and sharper through targeted product and user research. Tracking trends, audiences, competitors and gathering market data
  • Customer care: Helping our clients with their orders and questions
  • Operations: Setting up a feedback loop based on customer support insights
  • Ads & creatives: Designing visuals in Canva or Figma, running A/B tests
  • Social support: Creating, editing, scheduling and analysing content and posts

In short: you'll help us grow from startup to category challenger. You'll see your work out in the world.

What we're looking for

  • You're studying marketing, communications, media, creative business or something similar
  • You like creating and thinking smart, not corporate jargon
  • You write clearly and quickly
  • You're curious, self-driven and not afraid to make mistakes (or fix them)
  • You have an interest in design, sustainability and innovation
  • Bonus: experience with Canva/Figma, TikTok, photo/video, social ads

What you'll get

  • An internship where you actually build skills across marketing, events and operations
  • Plenty of room for your own ideas
  • Insight into campaigns, branding, crowdfunding, supply chain and product development
  • A startup with pace and ambition
  • The chance to work on a design product that already has serious traction
