The Rabobank Traineeship

The Rabobank Traineeship offers you the chance to get to know the organization and our departments in 18 months and work with many different colleagues from the bank.

We offer you a unique experience with four rotations (of approx. 4 months each), giving you a broad perspective on our organization. These rotations can take place within any department at the bank. We arrange the first two assignments based on your educational background, interests, and growth potential. After that, it’s up to you to choose what your preference would be.

Personal development is also central to the program. In addition to working within the various departments, you will also work on developing yourself, both professionally and personally, through coaching sessions and training. You will receive guidance from a talent manager. Next to that, a buddy, being a former trainee, will help you find your way within the bank. Mentorship by a more senior colleague within the bank is also provided.

During the Global track of the Rabobank Traineeship, you will build a large network. There are plenty of challenging projects for you to focus on as a Rabobank Trainee. You are the future of the bank. What will it look like? That’s up to you!

Examples of rotations from current and former trainees:

• Originating green bonds.

• Creating finance solutions to make homes more sustainable.
• Consulting on strategic projects within the Financial and Economic Crime domain of the bank.
• Working on financing transactions for the bank's corporate clients.
