Job Title: Wholesale Sales Intern

About Barrière:

Barrière is a growing wellness brand specializing in clean, effective transdermal vitamin patches designed to protect and nourish. As we expand our wholesale business, we are seeking a motivated individual to help us build relationships with retail partners and grow our market footprint.

Internship Details:

• Type: Paid Internship
• Duration: 6 months
• Hours: 15-20 hours/week
• Location: NYC-based (in-office; candidates open to relocating are also encouraged to apply)
• Start Date: April / May 2026

About the Role:

We are looking for a curious and motivated Wholesale Sales Intern to join our team. You don’t need prior wholesale experience – just an interest in learning, a willingness to ask questions, and excitement about the beauty/wellness space. This is a hands-on opportunity at a fast-moving brand where your contributions will genuinely make an impact.

What You’ll Work On (Key Responsibilities):

As part of our sales team, you will gain real exposure to the day-to-day operations of wholesale sales, including:

• Prospecting & Research: Help identify and reach out to potential retail partners across various categories and regions, actively supporting our wholesale growth initiatives.
• CRM & Organization: Maintain accurate wholesale contacts, notes, and sales records within Asana.
• Follow-Ups & Outreach: Assist in tracking samples, managing email correspondence, and following up on conversations with potential stockists.
• Sales Team Collaboration: Participate in weekly sales calls, share ideas, and learn how wholesale strategy is developed and executed.
• Merchandising Support: Provide support to retail partners by checking in on inventory levels, product placement, and enhancing in-store visibility.

This Could Be a Great Fit If You:

• Are a student or recent graduate (or early in your career) interested in sales, marketing, or communications.
• Are organized, curious, and enjoy figuring things out as you go.
• Possess a genuine interest in retail, partnerships, and the broader beauty/wellness industry.
• Thrive in a fast-moving environment where you can take ownership and foster your growth.

Nice to Have (Not Required):

• Experience using Photoshop and/or Illustrator to support deck creation.

Why You’ll Love This Internship:

• You’ll be given real responsibility, not just shadowing.
• You’ll work closely with a small, supportive team that values your ideas and input.
• You’ll leave with valuable hands-on experience in wholesale sales and retail partnerships.

✨ Don’t check every box? No worries – if this role excites you, we’d still love to hear from you.
