Max participated in Erasmus Recruitment Days, where he first connected with L’Oréal leading to pursuit an internship. This exposed him to a dynamic work environment by encouraging personal growth. “As an intern, you are part of the team, and you will get the responsibility about your own projects.”

At L'Oréal, we share a common purpose to:

Create the beauty that moves the world

We know many companies say this, but L’Oréal really is something different.

Of course, you know us as the number 1 market leader in beauty worldwide, with powerful brands like Giorgio Armani, Ralph Lauren, Prada, Diesel, L’Oréal Men Expert, Valentino and CeraVe (to name a few), but we are so much more than that!

For instance, we:
- are very proud to have been recognized as the most ethical company in the world for the 13th consecutive year
- and we’re the only company to have achieved the Sustainable ‘triple A’ status for seven years running (for tackling climate change, acting to protect forests and ensuring water security).
- see ourselves as one of the most digitally driven and innovative FMCG companies. In fact, we are the number 1 in the BeautyTech market.
- aim to be a representation of society, so we have Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion at heart.
We aim to bring together people with diverse backgrounds, visions, and skills to keep each other sharp.

Our 36 global brands are from all cultural origins. A perfect blend between European, American, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Brazilian, Indian, and African brands. We have created the world's most multi-cultural brand collection, and it remains unique in the industry.

L’Oréal’s global flotilla of brands is organized as 4 complementary Divisions, with each one developing a specific vision of Beauty for its respective market: Professional Products Division, Consumer Products Division, L’Oréal Luxe and the L’Oréal Dermatological Beauty Division.

To ensure its development, L’Oréal relies on global R&I, a unique portfolio of brands organized around four Divisions, and integrated industrial production, supported by a set of corporate functions: Administration & Finance, Digital, HR, Communications and Corporate Responsibility.
