About us
At MWS, we are on a mission to become the home of game-worn culture. We do this by connecting global fanbases to the ultimate fan item: match-worn and signed shirts from the world's biggest athletes and brands around the world. We accelerate engagement, interaction and revenue by enabling our customers to access pieces of sporting history, while raising funds for the causes that matter most to our partners. And the best part? We do it all live from the kick-off. With more than 400 partners globally, we are the outright market leaders in our industry. We see ourselves as innovators, constantly looking for new ways to surprise and delight our audience.
About the role
As our Operations Intern, you will be right at the heart of our physical and digital operations, delivering excellent service to our global club partners and fans. You will manage the entire lifecycle of our auction items, from handling the inbound flow of shirts to authentication, product photography, framing, and worldwide shipping.
Based in our brand-new operations facility, you will get complete, hands-on exposure to rethinking and improving key supply chain workflows, ensuring every unique piece of sporting history is handled with absolute precision.
What you'll do

Auction & Product Operations: Conduct product photography, handle the official authentication process, and prepare or frame shirts to meet our high quality standards.

Courier & Service Management: Communicate with international couriers and manage the day-to-day physical and digital inventory movement.
What you bring

Availability: Ready for a full-time (40 hours per week), 5–6 month internship starting in February.
Mindset: A hands-on doer with a proactive "can-do" attitude, high attention to detail, and a goal-oriented mindset.
Skills & Experience: Highly organized, flexible, precise in handling valuable memorabilia, and holding a valid driver's license. (Experience in a production/logistics environment is a plus!)
Languages: Fluent in English (spoken and written); additional languages are a great advantage.
Legal: EU passport holder or currently enrolled at a university in the Netherlands.
What We Offer
Informal and Sporty Environment: Work alongside a passionate, young, international team that lives and breathes sports culture.
