From analysing sales opportunities to improving internal workflows, you will contribute directly to business growth while gaining exposure to one of the fastest-evolving areas in payments.

The Team

The Commercial Cards team is part of Transaction Services within ING Wholesale Banking. We help corporate clients improve control over business expenses, increase operational efficiency, and gain better insights into spending through innovative card solutions.

Our clients range from large domestic companies to multinational organisations operating across multiple countries. You will work primarily with our senior sales experts, giving you a unique insight into how payment solutions are sold, implemented, and managed within a leading international bank.

This internship offers an excellent opportunity to learn about corporate payments, card economics, data analysis, and commercial banking while contributing to real business objectives.

You will support the Commercial Cards team in growing the business and improving the way we work. Your responsibilities may include:

• Coordinating internal projects aimed at improving efficiency, data quality, and workflow management.
• Performing data analysis on sales performance, pipeline development, client activity, and portfolio trends.
