Internship Job title: Global Procurement Internship
Department / Division: Procurement/Supply Chain
Hourly Range: $24/hour
Location: Ada, MI
Work Arrangement: Onsite
What’s special about this team:
Global Procurement is a function within the Amway Supply Chain that is responsible for matching external capabilities with internal needs. Global Procurement is divided into two categories: Direct (raw materials/finished goods) and Indirect (services). Amway Global Procurement seeks to drive business solutions that enable our Amway Business Owners (ABOs) success. Procurement seeks to empower each individual to bring their unique competencies and skillsets to the table in a work-to-succeed, play-hard culture. During your internship, you will be assigned a mentor who will help guide you in all things Amway and Procurement, and one or more Project Owners who will help guide you through your specific project.
How would an intern contribute to the team’s success:
Your role in Procurement plays a pivotal role to the success of our department as we provide our interns with real, meaningful projects that would usually be completed by one or more full time employees. During your internship, you will be able to lead multiple projects simultaneously from start to finish. Many cross-functional areas implement the recommendations that our interns provide, and give the opportunity to gain experiences and see meaningful change.
An example of a typical project would be:
Optimizing spend and providing cost reductions via conducting a strategic bid, developing a Supplier Segmentation process and rolling out globally, conducting a cost analysis/breakdown for a category of spend and providing cost improvement recommendations, negotiating spend with one or more suppliers, implementing or expanding a stocking program with current key suppliers, leveraging analytics to provide business insights and recommendations.
Required skills and background:
Desired Major: Supply Chain, Business, Economics, or related-field
Desired Class Year: Junior
Desired Skills: Desire for process improvement and strategic decision-making. Proficient with Office tools (Excel, Access etc.). Ability to work in a fast-paced environment. Analytical and communications skills.
