Graphic Design & Social Media Intern
G&S Sporting Goods – Graphic Design & Social Media Intern
G&S Sporting Goods is seeking a creative, reliable intern to help shape social media, content, and digital brand presentation for the revival of a heritage New York boxing brand.
G&S has roots on the Lower East Side dating back to 1937 and is now being rebuilt as a scrappy, digital-first brand focused on boxing equipment, apparel, and culture. We are looking for someone with strong visual taste who can help bring consistency, energy, and a more elevated point of view to our direct-to-consumer presence. You’ll have access to a large archive of vintage brand content, along with ongoing new imagery from recent shoots, to help build a stronger and more cohesive content cadence.

What you’ll do
- Adapt existing photography, vintage imagery, and product assets into posts, stories, and simple branded content
- Help create, organize, and schedule Instagram content
- Draft captions and help maintain a consistent weekly posting cadence
- Assist with email marketing campaigns and simple email creative
- Help update homepage/product imagery and marketing content on Shopify
- Track simple weekly metrics and help identify what content is working
- Support occasional product launches, restocks, and brand collaborations
What we’re looking for
- Strong visual taste and graphic design instincts
- Interest in branding, fashion, sports, culture, or DTC marketing
- Comfortable creating and adapting content for Instagram and digital use
- Organized, responsive, and able to work independently
- Comfortable with Instagram, Canva / Adobe Creative Suite, and basic digital tools
- Shopify and email platform experience are a plus, but not required
- Someone who cares about both aesthetics and consistency
Why this is interesting
- Real responsibility, not a shadowing internship
- Strong portfolio opportunity across brand, content, and growth
- Flexible hours
- Work directly with the owner on a live brand-building project
- Opportunity to help shape the voice and visual identity of a heritage New York brand
