ASHRO Lifestyle Brand Marketing Internship

The Ashro Lifestyle Brand Marketing Internship will begin in January and end in August 2026.

Here at Ashro, we embrace our role as a niche clothing and lifestyle brand for the Black woman. Like our customer, we are dynamic, multi-faceted and ALL IN. We love fashion and style, but we also believe that beauty is as beauty does. In other words, we are nothing if we are not living generously. This is exactly how our customer, The Ashro Woman, lives. It is our privilege is to give her a catalog and website that’s just for her: a place to get inspired and dream about what her best self looks like—and what it might look like in the future. In everything we do, we celebrate her: her culture, her faith, her heart and her style. Our bold, targeted fashion assortment is built upon Afrocentric looks, church attire and coordinated head-to-looks she can’t get anywhere else. As a lifestyle brand, we also offer her treasures in the categories of home, gifts and beauty. Our styles, fit, models, categories and content are all a reflection of who The Ashro Woman is. 

Who are we? We are hard workers, team players, collaborators and we passionately value our customer. Does that sound like you? If so, we’d love to hear from you!
