ABOUT MEAS ACTIVE

MEAS Active is a women's activewear brand rooted in Cincinnati, OH. We design performance-driven pieces built for real women — in the gym, at the studio, and everywhere in between. As a founder-led brand on the rise, we move fast, wear many hats, and care deeply about building something worth wearing. If you're passionate about fashion, hungry to learn, and ready to roll up your sleeves, you'll fit right in.

THE ROLE: Brand & Creative Associate

We're looking for a Brand & Creative Associate — a right-hand-to-the-founder who's equal parts creative and operations-minded. This is an all-hands role at a growing startup, which means no two days look exactly the same. You'll support everything from storefront shifts (weekends included) to building out graphics and managing our website. This is a ground-floor opportunity to learn every corner of a fashion brand and grow with it.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

Storefront & Sales

• Work weekend shifts at our Cincinnati storefront, representing the MEAS Active brand with energy and expertise
• Connect with customers, build relationships, and drive sales on the floor
• Help maintain a visually compelling and on-brand in-store experience

Creative & Digital

• Create graphics and visual assets for social media, email, and marketing campaigns
• Manage and update website content; willingness to learn website-building tools is a must
• Assist with product photography, flat-lay styling, ai photography and content planning

Fashion & Production

• Support the design process with an understanding of fashion design principles and garment construction
• Assist with sampling, production timelines, and vendor communication as needed
• Build linesheets, sketch garments, trend reasearch.
• Help with wholesale and retail order coordination and graphics.

Brand Operations

• Work directly with the founder on day-to-day brand operations and special projects
• Communicate clearly and professionally with customers, partners, and vendors
• Identify opportunities to improve processes and jump in wherever the brand needs you

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• Bachelor's degree required — fashion design, graphic design, marketing, communications, or a related creative field preferred
• Genuine passion for fashion, activewear, and women's wellness
• Strong communicator — confident with customers and clear in writing
• Creative eye with interest in graphic design; experience with Adobe Suite
• Willingness to learn new tools and skills (website platforms, production workflows, etc.)
• Available to work weekends for storefront shifts
• Self-starter mentality — you don't wait to be told what to do and you ask a questions and communicate well
• Comfortable in a fast-paced, startup environment where the job description evolves.
• Comfortable working within a founder-led structure — you communicate proactively, flag issues early, and bring solutions
• Motivated by goals and growth — you track progress, take targets personally, and celebrate wins

NICE TO HAVE

• Experience with e-commerce platforms (Shopify, etc.)
• Understanding of sales and how to communicate with various customers.
• Familiarity with wholesale or retail operations
• Background in fashion design, styling, or apparel production
• Social media management experience
