All roles
The Design & Brand Intern supports Northhold’s Studio work across brand systems, visual research, and presentation design. This is a hands-on role embedded in real client and internal projects, not speculative or mock work.
You will help translate strategic thinking into clear, restrained visual output across brands, decks, and digital assets.

Internship
At Northhold Capital, design is treated as a long-term asset, not surface decoration.
This role sits within Northhold Studio and works closely with the founder and lead collaborators. You will be exposed to early-stage brand thinking, visual direction, and how design supports positioning, credibility, and growth.
The internship is best suited to designers who care about taste, structure, and clarity, and who want to learn how design decisions are made in a real commercial environment.
Support brand system development including typography, colour, layout, and visual references
Assist with pitch decks, case studies, and presentation assets
Conduct visual and brand research across comparable companies and markets
Prepare clean, well-structured design files and handover assets
Help maintain consistency across client and internal brand materials
Collaborate closely with Studio and Venture work where design is required
You are an early-stage designer with strong visual instincts and a clear interest in brand, systems, and how design supports real businesses.
You care about proportion, typography, and restraint more than trends or decoration. You enjoy researching how serious companies present themselves and translating that understanding into clear, considered visual work.
You are comfortable working from direction rather than fixed instructions and can take feedback without ego. You notice inconsistencies, keep files organised, and take pride in delivering work that is clean and complete.
You are curious about how design decisions connect to positioning, credibility, and growth, and you want exposure to real projects rather than hypothetical exercises. You are reliable, thoughtful, and able to manage your time independently in a remote environment.
Experience with tools like Figma, Adobe Creative Suite, or similar is expected, but judgment, taste, and attention to detail matter more than years of experience.
Our mission is to build enduring digital companies.
Northhold Capital is a founder-led holding company that creates, backs, and compounds thoughtful software businesses. We work at the intersection of product, design, and capital, focusing on fundamentals that last rather than trends that fade.
For decades, the most resilient companies have been built the same way: disciplined execution, strong product judgment, and aligned ownership. We believe that approach still works. We act as builders and long-term partners, launching products from first principles, supporting them through growth, and investing where we see durable value.
Today, we work closely with early-stage teams and operators to design, launch, and scale software products across SaaS, tools, and marketplaces. Over time, we continue to back and operate the strongest of these businesses as part of our long-term portfolio.
Our team brings experience across product design, engineering, and company building. We value clear thinking, high standards, and people who take pride in doing things properly. If you care about craft, ownership, and building things that last, you’ll feel at home here.
