As an AIFP intern, you’ll have the chance to:

  • Learn the business, from products and processes to customer relationships and end-use applications.
  • Shadow and assist our logistics and supply chain team to understand critical operations.
  • Research and organize inactive customer accounts by geographic regions to identify new opportunities.
  • Observe and participate in inventory management processes.
  • Respond to inquiries from potential customers and support credit application reviews.
  • Contribute to special projects that enhance operations and business strategy.

What You’ll Gain:
