Do you enjoy diving into data and uncovering insights? Are you excited about working with diverse brands and segments? Then apply now and join us as a Strategy and Insights Intern in Hoofddorp from April 2025!

You will get the chance to immerse yourself in the dairy category in Africa Middle-East, and work on a wide variety of brands and segments, from yoghurt to flavoured milk, ice cream and dairy juice. Africa Middle-East comes with its own challenges such as high inflation, relatively lower consumption of dairy, challenging access to cold chain, specific distribution model, etc. All of these make the role even more interesting, and a great opportunity for you to develop various skills.

In this role, you will work hand in hand with the head of SIA (Strategic Insights & Analytics). You will be part of the regional team, whose role is to inspire, guide and support all local teams in the region. During your internship, you will uncover insights to guide our marketing and sales stakeholders in their strategic decisions, making sure that these decisions are always informed by true people-centric insights. Your role can evolve as you gain in experience throughout the internship.

The main tasks will be:

• Extract and analyse insights or data from various sources and combine them into a clear story with actionable recommendations.
• Support SIA with ad-hoc research, from the brief and setup to the report delivery with implications.
• Participate to the animation of the SIA community of the zone, through regular connections and sharing relevant insights to inspire them.

You are a Master student in business, marketing, psychology, economics, data science, communication, or a similar field. You are enthusiastic, organised, autonomous, proactive, and a team player. You are curious and eager to learn. Moreover, an analytical mindset is necessary to succeed in Strategic Insights, as well as a creative side to find solutions to sometimes complex problems or uncomplete information. You also have good communication skills as this role is also about telling a story and delivering recommendations. Finally, you are at ease with Excel and PowerPoint.

Key criteria to be eligible for the current internship:

• You are enrolled as a student for the whole duration of the internship (if you are a non-EU citizen then you must be enrolled at a Dutch university).
• You are fluent in English – written and verbal. French, Turkish or Arabic could be an asset.
• You are available to start on the 1st or 15th of April 2025 for 6 months and 5 days a week.
