Sales & Business Development Internship

About ModaResa

ModaResa is rebuilding wholesale fashion from the ground up. We replace spreadsheets, manual coordination and disconnected tools with a web and mobile platform powered by optimisation systems, workflow intelligence and increasingly AI-native product experiences.

Our platform makes sure every B2B buyer is matched with the right seller during brands’ showroom sales campaigns, through intelligent, automated appointment scheduling. Brands like Jacquemus, Loewe, Oakley and Victoria Beckham trust us and save hundreds of working days every year.

We are now evolving from a scheduling engine into a workflow-native system of record and execution, where every interaction becomes structured data that improves the next decision. Our core mission is to reduce the carbon footprint of global buyers’ B2B buying itineraries: fewer redundant trips, better commercial decisions and more efficient wholesale operations, season after season.

What you will do

You’ll work directly with the Founder and the Sales team on a portfolio of international fashion, sports and lifestyle brands, and you’ll evangelise ModaResa to brands and buyers in the most qualitative and strategic way possible:

• Progressively manage the full sales cycle on mid-market to enterprise brands and luxury houses, covering both assigned prospects and those you identify yourself, with guidance from our Senior Sales
• Deliver engaging product demos, on video calls and in person during showrooms and fashion weeks, communicating ModaResa’s concrete value and vision
• Build new relationships through targeted outbound efforts: phone, LinkedIn, industry events
• Build lasting relationships with decision-makers at prospective clients
• Consistently meet and exceed outreach, proposal and closing targets
• Contribute to refining our sales strategy based on feedback and results
• Deliver an excellent customer experience at every stage, regardless of deal outcome
• Stay sharp on fashion industry dynamics, wholesale trends and the competitive landscape
• And much more: take ownership, and we’ll give you more

What success looks like

Within 6 months, we expect you to:

• Independently manage an active pipeline of prospects
• Have conducted 30–40 qualified demos
• Have contributed to closed deals or advanced proposals
• Have developed a solid understanding of the product and its positioning in the fashion context

Who you are

• In your 4th or 5th year of studies, looking for an end-of-studies internship (with a genuine possibility of a full-time offer afterwards)
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English or French
• A genuine interest in the fashion industry and in technology applied to wholesale
• Able to prioritise, structure your work and give the team clear visibility on your progress
• Strong active listening, negotiation and presentation skills
• Feedback-oriented: you receive it, process it and apply it quickly
• Comfortable under pressure
• Pragmatic and entrepreneurial: you don’t wait to be told what to do

Nice to have: experience or knowledge of fashion wholesale and retail. Italian, Spanish or any Nordic language is appreciated but not required.

We’re not looking for years of experience. We’re looking for evidence of ambition, structured thinking and the ability to execute.

The team

You’ll work directly with the Founder and an international team, so in the office you might hear French, Spanish, Italian, Norwegian, and Swedish. The environment is fast, direct and impact-driven, with no unnecessary layers between an idea and its execution.

What we offer

• Real responsibility, not passive shadowing: you manage your own portfolio and join brands’ showrooms in person to support their onboarding
• Direct access to leadership and the company’s strategic vision
• Fast growth: strong performers can take ownership of a portfolio of leading brands within months
• A genuine possibility of a full-time hire at the end of the internship
• An international team and a Paris-based, fast-moving environment

How we hire

We hire few people, carefully. We assess quality of thinking, ability to execute and intellectual honesty, not titles or linear career paths. If you’ve built something, handled complexity or shown real ownership over your work, we want to hear from you.
