big fish®

We don’t always have space, but when we do, our internships matter.

Most internships are pointless box-ticking exercises. Not here. At big fish®, you’ll be thrown into the deep end (with armbands if needed). You’ll work alongside our team, sleeves rolled up, doing real work for real brands that actually make a difference.

They’re always oversubscribed, so don’t be disappointed if you don’t get in. But if you don’t ask, you definitely don’t get — so apply anyway.

Because strategy and creativity are contact sports. You can’t learn much from your sofa. Ideas don’t spark on Zoom, and no one ever picked up great taste from a Google Doc. You’ll get the best out of this experience by being here every day — shoulder-to-shoulder with people who love what they do.

What interns at big fish® should expect… 

• Paid or travel & meal reimbursement if unpaid micro-project.
• Clear contract or agreement before you start clarifying…
  • what you’ll work on
  • who you report to
  • how long you’ll be here (5 days a week, full-time).
• Real responsibilities: design tasks, collaboration, meetings, critique, exposure to multiple areas (branding, packaging, digital etc).
• Weekly supervision and feedback. Someone assigned to guide you, answer questions, help unblock issues.
• Tools & workspace: desk, computer, software, access to all necessary resources in our Chelsea studio.
• Inclusion: be part of the team, not a visitor. Attend studio meetings/call-outs, involved in culture, included in celebrations etc.
• Help navigating practical things: studio location, safety policy, any remote work if needed, but mostly you’ll be here in person.
