Ecommerce Internship Jobs in Cape Town, Western Cape at MyRunway

Full Job Description

This Isn’t The Devil Wears Prada

No stilettos. No designer meltdowns. No one yelling for a latte.

This is online retail — fast-paced, detail-obsessed, data-fuelled, and always on the move.

At MyRunway, our interns don’t watch from the sidelines. You’ll be part of the action — helping to launch products, manage live offers, and keep the customer experience sharp from the backend. You’ll learn how a real ecommerce business works — and how your work directly affects what sells.

What You’ll Be Doing:

Uploading products and offers — fast and flawless

Sourcing images, writing copy, and double-checking every detail

Spotting and fixing listing glitches before anyone notices

Managing stock sheets like a pro

Chatting with suppliers to keep everything on track

Digging into site data to help boost sales

Teaming up with Supply, Marketing, and Warehouse squads

Keeping the site sharp, shoppable, and smooth

Crushing the admin that keeps ecommerce ticking

What You’ll Learn:

How an online store actually runs behind the scenes

What goes into launching a product from supplier to site

How data, pricing, stock and content impact what sells

Why attention to detail and speed matter in the ecommerce world

You’ll Thrive If:

You’re detail-obsessed and enjoy the admin side of things

You’re organised, curious, and love ticking things off

You’re tech-comfy and not scared of spreadsheets

You’re proactive and love figuring things out

You’re keen to break into ecommerce and learn as much as you can

Bonus Points If:

You’ve studied Business, Retail or something analytical

You’ve worked in a fast-paced environment

You’ve got a thing for systems, tools, and efficiency

This internship is a real-world crash course in ecommerce.

You won’t just shadow. You’ll do.
