- Logistics: Support projects aimed at improving delivery times, cost, and reliability, coordinating between warehouse, freight partners, and customer‑facing teams.
About You
- Highly organised, with the ability to manage your own workload across several concurrent projects.
- An analytical mindset, comfortable working with data and turning it into clear, actionable insight.
- Excellent written and spoken English.
- A proactive, hands‑on attitude and willingness to get involved across different parts of the business.
- Currently studying business, supply chain, engineering, IT, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
Benefits
- Duration: 4‑6 months
- Start date: ASAP
- Type: Part‑time internship, approx. 3 days per week
