Merchandising Intern

Our purpose
At Otrium, we are a purpose-driven business with a bold vision: to create a future where all clothing is worn. Each year, billions of items are produced globally that go unsold, wasting valuable resources, creativity, and investment. Otrium is on a mission to change this. We are an online fashion outlet marketplace that empowers designer brands to find owners for every item they create, reducing waste and making fashion more sustainable.

How we work
Founded and headquartered in Amsterdam, Otrium operates across Europe as a company committed to its mission: Wear Over Waste. Our diverse and international team is passionate about our purpose, and we work together in a collaborative and innovative environment. We offer a hybrid setup to provide flexibility and freedom, with the option to work from our bright and spacious office in Houthavens, Amsterdam at least two days a week. Whether it's a morning gym class or a walk with your dog, we encourage a work-life balance that suits you.
