Are you an innovative and creative designer who is passionate about leaving your mark on BESTSELLER’s future collections? And would you like to get best-practice experience on how to combine creativity with business sense?

BESTSELLER’s International Business Trainee Programme offers ambitious and inspirational people from all over the world a chance to learn how to navigate in an international and fast-paced organisation. During the two-year programme, you are located at office locations in Denmark and at foreign BESTSELLER destinations. Through your specific specialist field, you obtain great insights into BESTSELLER’s business and culture.

Being a Design IBT
A career as a Design IBT is the right match for you, if you want to experience how design and business come together in an international context and at the same time leave your mark on BESTSELLER’s future collections.

Each of BESTSELLER’s 24 brands has its own design team focusing directly on the individual brand’s target group. Throughout the teams, you will experience a creative and dynamic atmosphere mixed with the right amount of business sense and flair for commercial design. As a Design IBT at BESTSELLER, you will be able to explore and select the strongest fashion trends from the international catwalks, subcultures, web bloggers, etc. and transform them into sellable yet aesthetic new fashion styles.

During the two years as an IBT, you will experience all aspects of the design process from brainstorming to final product. Your daily tasks will include drawing styles and commenting on shape and fitting together with our pattern designers. You will quickly build a broad network as you communicate with our international suppliers, collaborate with buyers, and receive feedback and comments from our sales team in order to learn about our market needs and demands.

As a future IBT, you will be given responsibility from day one and the opportunity to influence people and projects and to create results. You will be included in a diverse group of equally motivated and inspirational trainees, and you will build a unique and broad network with fellow trainees, colleagues and decision-makers.
