What is your role and what do you do here at Danone?
I started in Danone as a Marketing Intern for ProViva and Activia. Three months later I was offered a promotion as Junior Brand Manager for these brands. My role implied cross-functional collaboration with local and global teams in Nordics and Baltics. I worked with multiple projects simultaneously, such as website management, social media management, campaign asset creation, packaging design, merch creation, strategy development, business case and PR event planning.
What are you studying, and how does it connect to your tasks in your internship?
Bachelors program in Market Communication and the internship really provided hands-on experience in the FMCG industry. It is one thing to read about strategies, concepts and product development, however it’s a totally different thing to actually apply knowledge from your studies before you’ve graduated. Since my role implied various projects, I was able to work with all parts of marketing, high and low, rather than focusing on a single area which goes hand in hand with my multifaceted program.
What is your 1 best tip for future Danone Interns?
Be curious and keen to advises and learnings. Danone is market leaders in their industry and there are so much to learn from experienced team members within the different departments. Working in a fast-paced company like Danone will be challenging but extremely rewarding and by the end of the internship you will have a great advantage to pursue your career goals in marketing.

My internship is focused on sustainability and how to operationally improve the production choices we make as a global player in the food industry. The two main subjects I’m working on are regenerative agriculture and packaging. Two important and interesting areas where I get to contact suppliers and farmers to search for better solutions.
