Who this fits
This internship suits someone who wants hands-on responsibility for client accounts and live steel deals, rather than observation-only work. You will work alongside the Head of Sales and Steel Trader, with a stated route to a permanent Account Manager position after six months of performance. The role uses a hybrid format from an office in Prenzlauer Berg, Berlin.
From the employer
We're looking for a commercially curious, AI-enthusiastic intern to join our Trading team and take real ownership of client relationships across the DACH region. You'll work directly alongside our Head of Sales and our Steel Trader, getting hands-on exposure to live steel deals from day one.
This is not a shadow programme. From the start, you'll be managing real accounts, coordinating active deals, and gradually taking end-to-end deal ownership as your skills grow. For the right person, this is a direct path to a permanent Account Manager role.
