We are looking for a motivated Merchandiser Intern to join us on a hybrid basis from our Munich office and from home. This internship is a fantastic opportunity for a student or recent graduate to gain hands-on, real-world experience, learn from experienced professionals and contribute to meaningful projects from day one.
This is a hands-on role with real ownership and impact. You will apply your skills in Merchandising, Assortment Planning and Excel to solve interesting problems, ship work you can be proud of and help us raise the bar for what we do. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams, share your ideas openly and have the support you need to do your best work and grow along the way.
You do not need years of experience for this role — what matters most is curiosity, a willingness to learn and a genuine interest in pet care. A solid foundation in Merchandising and Assortment Planning, good communication skills and a proactive, can-do attitude will help you make the most of the opportunity.
Within your first few months, you will get up to speed with our products, processes and people, build strong working relationships across the team, and begin taking ownership of your own work. Over time, you will have the opportunity to deepen your expertise, take on broader scope and grow your career with us as the company continues to scale.
In return, we offer a supportive, inclusive and collaborative environment, competitive pay, meaningful benefits and the chance to do work that genuinely matters. We care about our people, invest in their growth and want everyone here to be able to do the best work of their careers.
If this sounds like you, we would love to hear from you. Sable Global is an equal-opportunity employer: we welcome applicants of all backgrounds and are committed to building a diverse team and an inclusive workplace where everyone can thrive. Apply today and tell us why you would be a great fit.
