Junior Personal Assistant | Fashion Vacancy

StyleSociety has a three-month contract opportunity for a Junior Personal Assistant to join our team.

This is a three-month contract that has the potential for permanent employment for the right candidate who displays enthusiasm, initiative and passion for the work. First and foremost, I should highlight that if you are keen to apply for this position, please make sure you tick all of the boxes before sending in an application. In other words, ‘no, chancers, please’. 

Please bear in mind that this is not exclusively a fashion position; We will consider only candidates with strong creative, social, and organisational skills.

This post requires a flexible candidate who can adjust to working within ‘personal and fashion’ environments.

Fashion Jobs South Africa

Creative thinking and problem-solving are fundamental as we push the boundaries of fashion and creativity. If you’re up on all the latest trends, can work your way with a camera and spot a Chanel or Valentino from miles away, then this position is for you.

This is an opportunity to work alongside our Fashion Director, assisting in the branding, marketing and planning of our Pop-Up Boutique; and, for the editorially savvy, contributing to our online magazine and engaging and helping with StyleSociety’s social media.

You should be an excellent writer with extensive knowledge of The Web and social media marketing and be able to assist the brand in getting much-needed visibility.

You will be required to assist with all fashion-related projects, pop-up boutiques and represent the brand at major fashion events! But also be prepared to make tea and fetch laundry! It is not always glamorous, so you must be committed to work! If you’re not an animal lover, please do not apply!
