Woodstock, South Africa MyRunway Full time

**Forget The Devil Wears Prada.**
No stilettos. No dramatic tantrums. No one screaming for coffee.

This is **e-commerce** — fast-moving, detail-driven, data-powered, and always evolving.

At **MyRunway**, you won’t be watching from the sidelines. You’ll be in the thick of it: launching products, managing live offers, smoothing out the backend, and seeing exactly how your work shapes what customers buy.

What You’ll Do
- Upload new products and offers quickly and accurately
- Source images, write sharp copy, and check every detail twice
- Spot and fix listing errors before customers ever see them
- Keep stock sheets up-to-date and accurate
- Work with suppliers to ensure everything runs smoothly
- Use site data to help improve sales and performance
- Collaborate with Marketing, Supply, and Warehouse teams
- Maintain a seamless, shoppable online experience
- Tackle the essential admin that powers e-commerce behind the scenes

What You’ll Learn
- The nuts and bolts of how an online fashion store actually runs
- What it takes to move a product from supplier to live on site
- How stock, pricing, data, and content all link to sales
- Why speed and precision matter in digital retail

You’ll Be Great At This If You
- Are detail-obsessed and love getting the admin right
- Stay organised and enjoy ticking things off your list
- Are comfortable with spreadsheets and online tools
- Enjoy problem-solving and being proactive
- Want to learn everything you can about e-commerce

Bonus Points If You Have:

- A degree in Business, Retail, or another analytical field
- Retail admin or e-commerce experience
- Thrived in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment
- A knack for systems, tools, and efficiency

This internship is a **crash course in real-world e-commerce**. You’ll gain exposure, responsibility, and first-hand experience in what it takes to keep an online retail business running.

**When you apply, include a quick motivation letter — tell us why you’re excited about this opportunity and why you want to be part of the MyRunway team.**

**Runway is committed to transformation and redressing of past inequalities. Our employment equity goals will be taken into account in our selection process.**
