Job Description
Tradechive is a growing peer-to-peer fashion marketplace built for the new generation of resellers, traders, and collectors. We focus on high-end, streetwear, and circular/sustainable fashion — connecting passionate buyers and sellers through a more creative, scam-free experience.

Assist in writing grant proposals, business plans, and funding applications.
Conduct market research on fashion resale trends, competitors, and potential partners.
Help organize key data and insights to support Tradechive’s growth and pitch materials.
Collaborate directly with the founders on strategy and presentation writing.
Who you are:
Based in the U.S. (remote, flexible hours).
Interested in startups, fashion, and creative business development.
Strong writer and researcher — experience in grant writing is a plus but not required.
Detail-oriented, organized, and proactive in finding new opportunities.
What we offer:
Hands-on experience working directly with Tradechive’s founders.
Mentorship in startup operations, marketing, and business strategy.
Flexible remote schedule and potential for future paid opportunities.
