FRUU Cosmetics is a London natural and vegan personal care manufacturer founded in 2017. We formulate, compound fragrance, fill and pack everything in house at Staples Corner, North West London. Our products are sold through Boots, John Lewis and over 100 independent stockists. We also run two sister brands: Rebrew (men’s grooming made with brewery byproducts) and Momo & Biscuit (pet care).
This is a paid, part-time internship funded through the Made Smarter programme (London & Partners, supported by Brunel University). You will use AI development tools, including Claude Code, to build cosmetic regulatory software and the online service. Around half the role is hands‑on AI‑assisted building.
What you will gain:
- Practical knowledge of UK/EU cosmetics regulation, CPSRs and IFRA standards
- Real experience building software with AI tools, used in the business straight away
- Exposure to formulation, fragrance and digital commerce in a small, hands‑on team
