Sales & Operations Intern
About the Brand
Yana Matkivski is a New York-based womenswear label known for refined, sculptural silhouettes and an intimate approach to dressing. We operate from a private studio in Manhattan, run a curated showroom by appointment, sell direct-to-consumer online, and participate in select pop-up events throughout the city. Our team is small and hands-on, and every detail of the client experience matters to us.
Opportunity
We are looking for a fashion business student with a sharp eye and a can-do attitude to support the sales and operations side of the brand. This is a real, working internship — you will be involved in the day-to-day rhythm of running a growing label, from showroom appointments and order fulfillment to client communication and studio operations.
We are flexible on schedule and happy to work around academic commitments, whether full-time over the summer or part-time during the school year. We also love when an intern brings unexpected strengths to the table — if you have a strong eye for content or social media, there may be room to contribute there as well.
What You'll Do
- Support showroom appointments — preparing the space, steaming and organizing garments, and assisting during client visits.
- Assist with fulfilling online orders: packing, labeling, and coordinating shipments.
- Help manage studio inventory — tracking stock, maintaining records, and keeping things organized.
- Assist with client communications under the guidance of the founding team.
- Support pop-up events as part of the sales team on the floor.
- Help with general operations and day-to-day tasks as the business requires– Contribute to social media content creation and scheduling if that’s a strength you bring.
Who You Are
- Currently enrolled in an undergraduate or graduate program in fashion business, merchandising, marketing, or a related field.
- Polished, professional, and comfortable around high-end clientele.
- Highly organized with strong attention to detail.
- A self-starter who takes initiative and doesn’t wait to be told what needs doing.
- Familiar with Shopify or e-commerce platforms a plus.
- An eye for fashion and genuine enthusiasm for the brand’s aesthetic.
- Based in New York City and available to work on-site at the studio.
Compensation
