Your mission

Hello and welcome! We're so glad you found us. At Sungrow, we're on a mission to power a cleaner world - and behind every solar panel and battery storage system we deliver, there's a brilliant logistics team making it all happen. We're now looking for a curious, hands‑on Logistics Intern to join our UK team and grow with us. Curious what this is all about? Let's dive right in:

• Support logistics activities for project deliveries, including assistance with supplier RFQs, tender preparation, and transportation route planning across the UK and Europe.
• Help follow up on live shipments and coordinate with internal teams and logistics service providers to ensure on-time, in-full last-mile delivery.
• Work closely with Project Managers and internal stakeholders to keep communication flowing and project logistics running smoothly.
• Support cost control efforts by comparing supplier quotations, tracking costs, and assisting with basic KPI monitoring.
• Assist in data collection and analysis to identify process gaps and support continuous improvement initiatives.
• Help manage logistics documentation and ensure compliance with internal procedures and applicable regulatory requirements, including invoice checking and monthly reporting.

Your profile

Alright - that sounds like a pretty exciting role, doesn't it? Now, to thrive here and genuinely enjoy every day, your background should look something like this:

• Currently studying or recently graduated in Logistics, Supply Chain, International Trade, Business, or a related field - a prior internship or relevant coursework is a great bonus.
• A genuine interest in international logistics and project delivery, with a basic understanding of international forwarding, Incoterms, customs clearance, and EU inland transportation.
• Eager to learn about IATA regulations, Dangerous Goods handling, supplier management, and RFQ processes - no expert knowledge required, just the right mindset.
• Proactive, hands‑on, and comfortable working in a fast‑paced, ever‑changing environment where no two days look the same.
• Strong attention to detail, good communication skills, and a willingness to take real ownership of your tasks.
• Comfortable working with data and structured reporting; solid MS Office skills (especially Excel and PowerPoint), with any ERP or WMS knowledge being a welcome plus.
• English proficiency at C1 level required; additional European languages or Mandarin Chinese are a strong advantage.
