Hey, we're hiring!
In a little over a year, we've gone from concept to launch of a little shirt company that's changing the way men think about fit. We've operated extremely lean (pun intended, ha!) and recognize the obvious: our continued growth depends on the bench strength of our team.
Simply put: we need a few more good people.
We're recruiting part-timers and interns, with the intent of growing roles with the business - including full-time positions. All experience levels. Passion and the ability to get sh** done are two traits that trump experience every time.
We're headquartered in Washington, DC. To be clear, we're a startup that has nothing to do with clean tech, government contracts or the corn lobby.
Our trade: shirts
Our mission is simple: to provide men with the best shirts possible. We're obsessive about fit, fabric, construction and design.
Our culture: defying the odds
In a country defined by consumer choice, our shirts kick the butts of many alternatives. But our strength lies in our culture. We're good people that work hard and believe in a purpose beyond commerce.
Opportunities abound!
We're young enough to believe that anything is possible, yet experienced enough to know that business outcomes matter. We're hiring for the below roles, but the roles will not define all that you can do at Hugh & Crye. Passionate about something not listed here? Get in touch.

Email the following to jobs@hughandcrye.com: your resume, the position you're applying for, and why.
CURRENT OPENINGS
EVENTS
We've held open houses, parties, pop-up shops, and service events. But we're just getting started. For this fall, we're planning a few very unique events here in Washington, DC. And we're looking for the right individual to own them. You'll play a role in the concept of all events, and then plan every last detail through to the finish. You'll help engage our fiercely loyal followers, and win many more. Above all, you'll help us create experiences that will be talked about long after they happen.

- You're a natural connector and can reach to your network when you need something done
- You're passionate about getting the details right
- You have the hustle in you - to work against a deadline no matter what it takes
PR
We're lucky to have received a bunch of publicity. In the past year, we have been featured in The Washington Post, Thrillist, NBC, Capitol File, and UrbanDaddy to name a few. And we're just getting started! You'll help us channel our publicity and events to take us to new heights.
Responsibilities and Qualifications:- Help us stay on top of regular press releases
- Reach out to a growing list of media contacts
- You have a mastery of language and PR and you're a natural connector

CUSTOMER SERVICE
You ooze empathy, and generally care about other people – whether they're happy or not. You want to help, and you're good at it. Customer service at Hugh & Crye is not about answering the phone.
Responsibilities and Qualifications:- Order fulfillment: pick, pack and ship orders to our customers
- Respond to customer queries over the phone and email
- Help customers find their H&C shirts during store and pop-up events
- You like solving problems for customers - be it when something goes wrong, or to offer style advice
- Ability to synthesize customer interactions into insights - how can we improve?
- Retail experience is helpful, but not necessary
SOCIAL MEDIA + CAMPAIGNS
You're equal parts smart and articulate. You're thoughtful in what you share with the rest of the world, but you don't hesitate. You act. We're in the concept phase of several campaigns that will be truly one of a kind. We need your tech and social media skills to help reach the thousands, millions, of folks that haven't heard about us.
Responsibilities and Qualifications:- You'll help craft our social media strategy. This is bigger than it might sound.
- You're a natural connector, and know how to engage people over social platforms
- You're freaking fearless.
- You're excited about taking a concept into a campaign, and seeing it through the finish!
- You have the hustle in you - to work against a deadline no matter what it takes
