Background

In May 2021 we opened our first permanent secondhand shop in Hong Kong,The Redress Closet, selling curated secondhand clothing and accessories to support Redress’ mission to reduce the city’s clothing waste. This person will join the Circular Fashion Programme team to achieve our programme mission to reduce clothing waste entering Hong Kong’s landfills by increasing the reuse, resale and recycling of clothing locally. You will mainly be supporting the Circular Fashion Programme team on planning, managing and creating content for the social media account of our secondhand clothing shop, The Redress Closet. You will also need to support the day-to-day operations of The Redress Closet with our shop staff.

This position is a great opportunity for a motivated and devoted individual looking for a minimum of 6-month hands-on work experience in the sustainability, sustainable fashion, marketing, and/or charity/NGO sectors. We will provide the volunteer with access to our IG @TheRedressCloset, information about past marketing/social media campaign, as well as themes, suggestions of posts and necessary data.

Why this is important

Not only are we looking to grow secondhand clothing and accessories sales through this social media account, but also to engage with the wider community, raise awareness and educate about the merits of secondhand shopping to reduce fashion's social and environmental impact.

What we do

Redress is an environmental charity with a mission to prevent and transform textile waste to catalyse a circular economy and reduce fashion's water, chemical and carbon footprints. Our programmes work to change mindsets and practices to stop the creation of textile waste now and in the future, as well as creating systems and partnerships that generate and showcase value in existing waste.
