Internship - Global Business Conduct

The internship

Are you ready to gain hands-on experience in a truly global environment? Join our Global Business Conduct team within Legal Affairs department and be at the heart of our Company's ethics and compliance efforts across diverse cultures and regions. This internship offers a unique chance to collaborate with local operating companies from different countries, contributing to a wide range of business conduct topics, focusing on integrity and anti-corruption. You will assist in monitoring developments related to ethics and compliance, conduct research on regulatory changes and global trends, and support projects that shape our business conduct framework and help implement global standards. By working closely with teams from across the business, you’ll ensure alignment on key compliance initiatives, enhance our culture of integrity, and contribute with innovative ideas to drive our commitment forward.

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. We like to bring the outside world inside and therefore we embrace new, fresh ideas with enthusiasm. Of course always with the guidance that is right for you.
