What We Offer

We believe great ideas can come from anywhere, and often, they come from you. As an intern at JD.com, you’ll work on meaningful, hands-on projects, learn from talented colleagues across our global network, and grow in a supportive, fast-paced environment designed for development. With competitive compensation, great office locations, and a people-first culture that champions continuous learning, you’ll have everything you need to thrive and kick-start your career.

About Your Program

You’ll be joining the JD Young (JDY) Internship Program, designed to give early-career talent hands-on exposure to real projects, real responsibilities, and real growth. Over 3-6 months, you’ll work alongside experienced teams, build fundamental skills, and gain insights into how a global business operates.

Alongside mentorship and learning experiences your day to day role will cover responsibilities such as:

• Support the Compliance team in translating regulatory requirements (food and non-food) into practical policies, processes and governance documentation.


• Assist with research into local regulatory frameworks and help maintain trackers for authority contacts, product categories and compliance obligations.


• Help prepare materials for risk assessments, compliance reviews and stakeholder reporting.


• Support the coordination of training and awareness content aimed at building a compliance-first culture across the business.


• Assist with organising and maintaining governance documentation, SOPs and internal control records.


• Contribute to ad hoc projects supporting the wider build-out of the Legal and Compliance function, including process improvement and administrative support.

About You

• Currently studying towards, or recently completed, a degree in Law, Business, Regulatory Affairs, or a related field.


• Strong research and analytical skills, with the ability to summarise complex information clearly.


• Highly organised, detail-oriented, and comfortable working with trackers, documents and reporting tools.


• Proactive and curious, comfortable asking questions in a fast-paced environment where not every answer is immediately clear.


• Good written and verbal communication skills; able to work well with cross-functional stakeholders (Legal, Operations, Commercial).


• Prior internship or coursework exposure to compliance, e-commerce, or supply chain is a plus but not required.
