Graphic Designer (M/W) - Internship

In short

As a Graphic Designer Intern, you’ll play an important role in the Communication team. You’ll be responsible for supporting the team and the company in several areas. Your tasks will include designing and producing visual content, branding assets and social media graphics. You’ll also work with other departments to help them create compelling visual materials that convey the company’s message and values. Your role is crucial to the company’s success, and your contributions will be highly valued.

What the FWT

The Freeride World Tour (FWT) team is comprised of 20-25 young and passionate staff based near Lausanne, Switzerland. They work year-round to organize the five-stop Freeride World Tour circuit, which includes the well-known Xtreme Verbier event. Additionally, the team coordinates over 90 Qualifier events and 140 Junior events worldwide and oversees a global community of 10’000+ licensed riders.

This entails a lot of work and travel, but also means spending time at events (and occasionally sharing a drink) with the Freeride World Tour Family. This unique community includes over 120 people, including external staff, riders, and partners. Working with FWT is a life-changing experience that allows you to meet inspiring individuals and grow on both personal and professional levels.

The work environment is dynamic and occasionally disorganized but encourages proactivity and the sharing of new ideas regardless of position or background, all with a focus on the big picture in which everyone plays a crucial role. Micro-management and hierarchy are not part of our vocabulary, and the status quo gives us nightmares. Telework and flexible work arrangements are promoted, though physical teamwork is also emphasized as necessary for success

Meet the Team

At its core, the Communication team produces content and tells compelling stories about the competitions and riders of the Freeride World Tour. This tour is recognized as the pinnacle of freeriding competition, and it is the Sports Development team which is responsible for organizing Challenger, Qualifier, and Junior events.

If you’re looking for an environment where ideas (not always the smartest) are flying around, and where you can participate in international projects with a real impact, then this opportunity is for you! If you enjoy challenging the status quo and hearing “We’ve always done it this way” makes you jump out of your skin, even better!

The Freeride World Tour Communication team is composed of passionate individuals from different cultures and backgrounds who work together towards a common vision. Expect a good dose of 5-star fun and humor!
