  • Conduct basic policy analysis and prepare summaries, insights, or stakeholder overviews to support internal decision-making.
  • Assist in implementing advocacy plans and stakeholder engagement activities for 2026.
  • Coordinate with Danone’s European public affairs team to ensure consistent messaging.

Corporate Communications

You will support external communication activities such as:
  • Contributing to the execution of corporate communication plans, including PR activities.
  • Drafting initial versions of press materials, external statements, Q&As, and message houses.
  • Coordinating with PR agencies and Danone’s internal global communications network on day-to-day needs.
  • Supporting media inquiry handling and reactive communication (with senior team guidance).
  • Contributing to crisis-preparedness messaging materials.
