Internship - Global Talent & Leadership

Are you passionate about creating a diverse, inclusive workplace while shaping global talent development? Do you want to contribute to meaningful projects in two exciting focus areas—Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DE&I) and the Global Graduate Program (GGP)? Then this internship is for you!

The department

The Global Talent & Leadership (GT&L) team plays a vital role in unlocking the full potential of our people and organization. We are dedicated to attracting and retaining top talent, fostering an inclusive workplace, and ensuring continuous learning and development opportunities.

Our team is made up of four Centres of Excellence (CoEs): Diversity, Equity & Inclusion, Global Talent Acquisition, Talent Management, and Learning & Capabilities. Together, we strive to create impactful programs and strategies that support HEINEKEN’s people and business goals.

In this internship, you’ll have the unique opportunity to contribute to two key areas within GT&L: Diversity, Equity & Inclusion and the Global Graduate Program, which is part of Global Talent Acquisition. This dual focus will allow you to gain broad exposure to how we approach talent development and inclusion on a global scale.

The internship

As an intern in the Global Talent & Leadership (GT&L) team, you’ll have the unique opportunity to work across two key areas:

1. Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DE&I):

• Coordinate activities with DE&I ambassadors and Employee Resource Groups worldwide.

• Supporting the strategic growth of the GGP, focusing on attracting and developing future HEINEKEN leaders.
• Working closely with people across the organization worldwide, as well as external partners and vendors, to ensure the program’s success.

• Analysing data and providing insights to optimize the program.

Throughout your internship, you’ll get hands-on experience in global talent strategies, working closely with professionals across the organization. You’ll also have the freedom to shape your own internship experience by taking ownership of specific projects that inspire you.

During your internship you will get the opportunity to get to know HEINEKEN as a company, also outside your department. We give you the trust and freedom, so you can work like a real entrepreneur.
