The job
As intern in Raw Materials & Energy you will act as support to the Category Managers and support on strategic sourcing issues such as supplier selection and approval and negotiations. As our responsibility is global you should expect to take active part of projects that involve suppliers located around the world.

To drive your projects successfully (with supervision), you need a structured approach, have a critical eye for details and a mind focused on quality. In addition, you characterise yourself as a flexible person with an unmistakably high level of drive. Good cooperation skills are essential and the ability to work in a complex and dynamic organisation is a prerequisite. Last but not least, you have solid English language skills in speech and in writing.
You posses a strong personal drive and dedication. You have professional and personal impact that is reflected in your desire to take initiative.
