About us
We’re here to unite the conditioning community. We believe that putting the sweat in today, prepares us for tomorrow. So, we give people the tools they need to reach further, go faster, be stronger. We celebrate those who show up – for themselves – to be their physical or mental best, whatever that means for them. It’s what we want for our community, and our team. A team that’s growing rapidly around the world. A collective of talented individuals working together to invent Gymshark’s future. Our plans are ambitious, and we’re looking for people who want to join us for the ride – our growth will be your growth.
The Gymshark Creative Studio is seeking a Production placement student to join their team and become an integral part of the Brand department. As a member of the production team, you will play a vital role in creating all of the still and video content that you see on Gymshark's social media, e-commerce site, Regent St store, billboards, and all of their digital communications.
The production team is responsible for bringing the creative vision to life and making it happen. This is an exciting opportunity to gain valuable experience in a fast-paced and dynamic environment. You will have the chance to work with a talented team and contribute to the success of one of the fastest-growing fitness apparel brands in the world.
If you have a passion for production and a desire to learn and grow, apply for the Production placement programme at Gymshark today!
When you work for us, you’re more than a placement student – you’ll join our Gymshark family. We give people the tools they need to reach further, go faster and be the best version of themselves. We work hard, sure, but we have fun while we do it.
