During this internship you will learn to:

• Be part of an international Purchasing team in the beauty and consumer-products industry;

• Support the implementation of a new SRM tool and learn how digital systems improve purchasing processes;
• Work with supplier and market information to support data-driven business decisions;
• Develop practical analytical, organizational, and communication skills while contributing to meaningful projects.

This makes the internship a valuable learning experience if you are interested in procurement, supply chain, data quality and business operations.
