FORVIA is looking for a year-round Sales Intern for its location in Northville, MI Your mission, roles and responsibilities Join our team as a Sales Intern within our Commercial Excellence Lab. The Commercial Excellence Lab is a small team within Sales in our Clarion Electronics division created to bring fresh thinking, analytical talent, and new technology into the way we work. This is not a traditional Sales Intern position.

You will learn how a global automotive business operates from the commercial front line, but your role will go beyond supporting existing processes. You will study how work is performed, identify opportunities for improvement, develop practical solutions, test them with the organization, and help put them into practice. Although this role is based within Sales, its scope is cross-functional.

Commercial performance depends on how effectively Sales works with Finance, Engineering, Program Management, Purchasing, Operations, Supply Chain, Quality, IT, and other functions. We are looking for curious, early-career talent who desire to understand how a complex global organization works with willingness to challenge it constructively. We are more interested in your ability to learn and solve problems than in a long list of existing software certifications.

Responsibilities Participate in recurring sales activities to understand the business, its customers, and its processes (approximately 20-25% of the role). Observe and map how commercial and cross-functional processes are performed in practice. Analyze data to identify inefficiencies, delays, inconsistencies, risks, and improvement opportunities.

Challenge existing ways of working with facts, curiosity, and respect for the people involved. Develop practical tools, models, dashboards, and process improvements to support the successful implementation of new processes. Explore how AI and other technologies can reduce repetitive work and improve decision quality.

Work with different functions to understand the root causes of commercial and organizational problems. Test proposed solutions with selected teams or customer accounts. Measure the impact of improvements and adjust solutions based on feedback.

Prepare and lead workshops to share observations, findings, and recommendations. Assist teams to make faster and better-informed decisions. Document lessons and create solutions that can be scaled across the organization.

Projects May Include: Reduce the time required to prepare and approve customer quotations. Improve sales forecasts and opportunity-probability assessments. Automate recurring reports, meeting preparation, and action tracking.

Improve the quality and usefulness of CRM information. Conduct customer, competitor, and market research to support business insights. Identify duplicated work across Excel, email, PowerPoint, and business systems.

Improve pricing, profitability, and commercial-risk visibility. Strengthen the tracking of customer commitments and commercial recoveries. Simplify cross-functional handoffs and approval processes.

Apply data and technology to improve customer responsiveness and execution. Your profile and competencies to succeed Qualifications: Actively pursuing a bachelor's or master's degree throughout mathematics, economics, physics, computer science, business, statistics, engineering, or related fields. Previous internship or sales experience is not required.

Interest in business, customers, technology, and organizations. Enjoy solving complex problems. Comfortable working with incomplete or imperfect data.

Communicate complex ideas in a simple and structured way. Willingness to understand detailed operational work before proposing changes. Collaborate effectively with people from different functions and backgrounds.

Take ownership and follow ideas through implementation. Comfortable presenting your work and facilitating discussions. Valued Skills and Capabilities Experience with some of the following is helpful but not required: Excel and data analysis.

Power BI or similar visualization tools. Python, SQL, or other analytical tools. Automation tools.

Artificial intelligence applications. Statistical, financial, or economic analysis. Manage complexity, manage ambiguity, optimize work processes.

What You will Gain As part of the Commercial Excellence Lab, you will receive: Direct exposure to a global automotive Sales organization. Access to real customer, commercial, operational, and financial challenges. Experience working across multiple business functions.

Ownership of projects from analysis through implementation. Opportunities to present findings to commercial and functional leadership. Practical experience applying data, technology, and structured problem-solving.

A broad understanding of how a complex international organization competes and makes decisions. Mentorship and feedback from experienced business leaders. The opportunity to create measurable impact early in your career.

The Commercial Excellence Lab is for individuals who do not want to spend the beginning of their careers only observing from the sidelines. You will be expected to learn, question, build, test, communicate, and improve. You will perform some of the foundational work required to understand the business, but you will not be limited to paperwork or routine support.

Your main responsibility will be to help us see what we can improve and work with us to make it happen.
