Internship - Strategy & Transformation

Internship – Strategy & Transformation

Putting strategy into action, it excites me to work on complex challenges and bring change!

The internship

You will work at the intersection of Procurement, Finance, Supply Chain and Transformation. As part of the Evergreen 2030 strategy, you will support initiatives that improve how HEINEKEN manages external spend and accelerates productivity across the business.

• Support the leadership team in tracking progress against strategic priorities and transformation milestones
• Help build the capabilities, tools and ways of working needed to put strategy into action
• Collaborate with colleagues across Procurement, Supply Chain, Finance and Transformation to bring structure, insight and momentum to key initiatives

Your new team and workplace

You will be part of Procurement Excellence; a small team focused on strategy & transformation focused on optimizing how HEINEKEN manages around €20 billion in annual external spend. The team works across functions, regions and operating companies to strengthen performance management, improve productivity and simplify ways of working.

During your internship, you’ll have every opportunity to get to know HEINEKEN as an organization, not just within your own team, but across departments. We trust and empower you to work with an entrepreneurial mindset. At HEINEKEN, we love bringing the outside world in and welcome fresh, new ideas with open arms. Of course, we’ll make sure you get the guidance that suits you.
