Warehouse Logistics Intern

Our purpose

Otrium is a purpose-led business – we see a future where all clothing is worn.

Every year, billions of items are produced globally but are never sold. Clothing goes unworn and often ends up in landfills. This is a huge waste of creative energy, labour, natural resources and investment. Otrium is changing fashion from the inside out: we are an online fashion outlet marketplace and we tech-enable designer brands to find an owner for every item they produce. 

How we work

Founded and headquartered in Amsterdam, operating across Europe, Otrium is a start-up company whose diverse, talented and international team, works diligently and passionately to achieve one mission: Wear Over Waste. We have a hybrid set-up which offers flexibility and freedom to our O-Team - this means we encourage our (local) O-Team members to join together in our office based in the Houthavens, Amsterdam at least 2 days per week. Do you have a gym class at 11am or want to take your dog for a walk? Go for it!

As the Warehouse Logistics Intern, you'll work a minimum of three days a week at our warehouse in Almelo, with the option to work remotely for up to two days. 

Your impact

As a Warehouse Logistics Intern, you will contribute to optimising our logistics processes by assisting in daily operational/administrative work, contributing to projects, improving, and doing research.

Your responsibilities

• Investigating warehouse processes (such as order picking, storage locations, and returns handling) and proposing improvements, e.g., through automation or lean principles.
• Gaining insights into Otrium’s  entire supply chain and identify bottlenecks
• Collecting and analysing logistics data (e.g., delivery times, transportation costs, VAS activities, error rates) and reporting on key performance indicators (KPIs) to assess process effectiveness.
• Identifying and resolving “wrong item” returns, ensuring the items are back online and sellable again supporting our mission of “all items should be worn”
