THIS OPPORTUNITY IS NOW CLOSED FOR APPLICATIONS!

Stately Pet Supply is a thriving family-owned brick-and-mortar retail business that provides the area with high-quality pet supplies. Our commitment to quality and passion for pets drive our carefully curated inventory selection. However, to fully excel in today's digital landscape, we're seeking your expertise to manage our digital operations effectively. Join us in bringing the best of both worlds to pet lovers, blending our traditional values with a strong online presence.

This internship offers a transformative learning experience where you'll acquire a diverse skill set that extends beyond classroom knowledge. You'll immerse yourself in the intricacies of Point of Sale (POS) systems, gaining expertise in seamless integration with websites and supplier portals, while also delving into product costing and sales forecasting. Your Excel skills will be put to practical use for data analysis and updates from the POS, enhancing your data-driven decision-making abilities. Most significantly, you'll apply your academic knowledge to assist a small business in expanding its operations, bridging the gap between theory and practice, and leaving a tangible impact. This internship not only equips you with valuable technical and analytical skills but also nurtures your ability to contribute meaningfully to a real-world business environment. We may be a pet supply- specific store, but your skills obtained for the future will certainly translate easily into any inventory-based business operations.

Thank you for your consideration, pizza provided!
