About JDLSOURCING

We are an international production partner for brands that want to stand out. From custom-made merchandise to premium packaging and next-level giveaways. We translate ideas into physical products that show up at events, in stores, marketing campaigns and across social media. We work for fast-growing startups and established A-brands in hospitality, FMCG, sport, retail and fashion. With our own teams in China and Europe, we make the difference in speed, quality and reliability. Our clients include KTM, PepsiCo, Jamin, Uber Eats and more!

Who we are looking for

We’re not looking for the perfect CV. We’re looking for the person who gets things done, takes ownership and makes the team better. Most people manage projects. We’re looking for someone who owns them from first brief to final delivery, no excuses. Bonus points if you actually enjoy a tight deadline.

Job Description

As an intern, you are an important link within our operational process. You support us in ensuring that ongoing orders run smoothly. You are in daily contact with customers, suppliers, and our external warehouse, making sure that everything is accurate down to the smallest detail from inventory management to order status updates.

What you’ll be doing

✔️ Status updates: You keep customers informed about their orders and project timelines.
✔️ Keeping our systems organized: You ensure our order tracking system is always accurate and up to date.
✔️ Stock checks: You coordinate with our external warehouse to monitor and verify inventory levels.
✔️ Supplier communication: You liaise with suppliers regarding lead times, pricing, and samples.
✔️ Project support: Together with the Project Manager and Sales team, you help ensure projects run smoothly and successfully.
✔️ Logistics: You arrange and process sample shipments via PostNL and DHL.
✔️ Spotting opportunities: Do you see ways to improve, speed up, or optimize processes? Speak up! We value initiative and fresh ideas.

What we expect from you

  • You are a natural organizer: detail-oriented, well-structured, and always in control of the bigger picture.
  • You are comfortable taking ownership and communicate clearly when things don’t go according to plan.
  • You are service-minded and make both customers and suppliers feel like VIPs.
  • Multitasking? You can effortlessly keep ten balls in the air at once. 🤹
  • You are fluent in both Dutch and English.
  • Living in or near Amsterdam is a strong advantage.
  • Bonus points if you have an affinity with manufacturing, import/export, logistics, or project management.

What do we offer🎁

  • Internship allowance: Internship compensation to be discussed based on the number of days available per week.
  • A great workplace in Amsterdam’s Amstelkwartier, surrounded by a young and ambitious team. No slow corporate hierarchy, just a down-to-earth environment with great energy, speed, and a strong focus on growth.
  • A hands-on internship where you won’t be fetching coffee, but will be given real responsibility.
  • The opportunity to work on projects for well-known brands (and see the products you helped create in real life!).
  • Friday afternoon drinks, team activities, and a highly informal and enjoyable work atmosphere. 🍻
  • A perfect match? There’s a strong chance of a permanent position after your internship!
