About the Role
ResQBag is a pre-launch food-tech startup on a mission to reduce food waste by connecting surplus food from restaurants and vendors with consumers. We're looking for a Founders' Office Branding Intern to work directly with the founding team on shaping how ResQBag looks, sounds, and shows up to the world. This is a high-ownership role for someone who wants a front-row seat to building a brand from the ground up — from visual identity to voice to the story we tell across every touchpoint.

- Support the Campus Ambassador Program with branded assets, messaging, and campaign materials
- Research food-tech and sustainability brand trends to inform positioning and creative direction
- Assist in building brand guidelines documentation (logo usage, colour palette, typography, tone)
- Contribute ideas for founder-led storytelling and community-building content
- Coordinate with cross-functional interns (marketing, sales, design) to keep branding aligned across departments
- Support ad-hoc founders' office projects tied to brand and positioning as ResQBag moves toward launch
