Creative Project Manager

About Bombas

Bombas is a premium basics company built around comfort and a social mission. Founded in 2013 after the team learned that socks are the most frequently requested clothing item in homeless shelters, the brand set out to help by donating one pair for every pair sold. That mission expanded as Bombas added underwear and t-shirts, which are also among the most requested items in shelters, while continuing to focus on quality, comfort, and community impact.

Bombas is named after the Latin word for bumblebees, reflecting the idea that a strong hive is built through teamwork. The company values a diverse and inclusive workplace where different perspectives are welcomed and every voice is encouraged. This role is based at Bombas HQ in New York City and is expected to be performed onsite.
