Full-time internship consultancy

Sales, Marketing & Pricing intern mainly for Private Equity held portfolio companies

We are a boutique consulting company focused on Gross Profit improvements for Private Equity Portfolio companies. Our core focus lies in marketing, sales, pricing, and procurement. We do this through traditional Consulting projects and by delivering Data & Digital Tooling improvements (e.g. CRM and tooling). At impulssum, we aim to create lasting impact through data-driven & customer-centric strategic advice. We combine a top-tier management consulting approach with a strong focus on pragmatically increasing customer centricity. We operate on the C-level to set strategic direction and on the ground level to get things done. Currently, we have 5 FTEs in our Amsterdam office next to Central Station, and we are looking for someone to strengthen our team.

We cover a broad range of strategic management services, focusing on Gross Profit improvements through topics such as Sales process optimization, Value-Based Pricing, Customer Experience, Portfolio development or Digitization of the Commercial Area. We strongly collaborate with Private Equities. You will have direct exposure to leading PEs and help them drive value-creation projects for their portfolio. Our aim is to structure and build value adds for our clients, not to create hundreds of slides. We focus on the mid-market, where pragmatic delivery is critical. You will work in an entrepreneurial environment and shape impulssum’s future together with us.

In this particular role, we are looking for someone interested in becoming a well-balanced consultant with the potential to develop further in the company. Someone who likes to interact with clients, knows how to manage a process, takes responsibilities seriously, and has an entrepreneurial mindset to help grow Impulssum together.

· Support one or several consulting projects at the same time

· Own the analysis and drive insights generation

· Create conclusions and support on presenting back to the client

· Contribute to the broader business through business development, knowledge sharing, coaching and other activities

· Help in our own Sales & Marketing proposition

· Defining and working out new propositions to expand impulssum’s offering

Tuesday and Thursday are our general office days. For the rest of the week, you can work remotely or join colleagues in the office. We also spend some time on-site with the client for important meetings.
