Internship – E-Business PMO

HEINEKEN is looking for You!

HEINEKEN’S Business-to-Business (B2B) customers are diverse (e.g., bars, restaurants, small groceries, convenience stores) but through digitizing our business, our customers are uniform. The Global E-Business team is developing, together with our Operating Companies (OpCos = our markets), a winning solution by providing a superior customer experience that goes beyond ordering and order fulfilment, including personalized assortments, promotions, and business support. Hand in hand with digitizing business is the importance of value creation through reporting and analytics. The more we digitize our business, the more we can build on technology to provide valuable data and business insights.

In addition, you will have the opportunity to connect to all aspects of our team: innovating & pioneering in the digital realm, learning how to work agile and getting an understanding of the role than “Change and Enablement” plays in adopting new ways of working in our business.
