Sustainability & Design Intern
Why Join NaughtOne?
Because NaughtOne doesn’t just make furniture for your home—you might not even know us. However, LinkedIn, Google, and Adobe do because they all use our designs in their workplaces.
The NaughtOne team is just as unique as the furniture we create, and if you join, you’ll be part of a global business with a Yorkshire spirit. Our colleagues are scattered worldwide because our customers are too—but our personality stays true to home: down-to-earth, friendly, and honest.
We’ve been recognised with accolades like The Queen’s Award for Enterprise for International Trade, and it makes us proud to be acknowledged for our achievements. Sustainability has always been important to us, and we’re continuously finding ways to do better and leave a stronger positive impact. We do this because it’s the right thing—not just good for business.
If that makes you curious? Good—because curious people thrive at NaughtOne. Maybe you’ll be one of them soon.

Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Additionally, the role will involve:
- Researching sustainable materials, finishes, and suppliers suitable for furniture manufacturing
- Attending supplier visits and gaining broader insights into NaughtOne’s operations
- Understanding how circularity can be applied in product design
