Intern Strategy Supporting Staff Netherlands

Are you a problem solver, with an interest in strategy consulting, who would like to gain working experience at the highest level within a fast growing and private equity-backed global agency? We are looking for a Strategy Intern to support the global Strategic Projects team.

The Strategic Projects team supports the Global Executive Team with driving projects to fulfill DEPT®’s long-term goals, solving ad hoc problems and creating top-notch presentations for shareholders and Depsters. As an intern, you will play a key role in supporting the CEO office with fulfilling DEPT®’s global ambitions on a day-to-day basis. Within the Strategic Projects team (ex-Google & ex-start-up marketing manager) you will learn rapidly, gain an insight into what in-house strategy consulting looks like, and have complete ownership of your work. 

No day, week or month will be the same in this internship. On a daily basis, you can expect to work on various global projects at the same time (i.e. writing out a new global business plan for a strategic initiative), while also making weekly reports on global sales performance. You will engage with management teams and important stakeholders all across the globe.

Strategy at DEPT®: 

• A group of creative colleagues that will feel like friends in no-time;
• Good vibes: we’re trusting and believe in creative freedom and autonomy;
• If you grow, we grow. That’s why we’ll cheer you on [and support you] with personal coaching, and a personal development plan;
• Encourage you to pursue projects aligned with your interests in areas such as finance, marketing, sales, or client relations, allowing you to gain valuable cross-functional experience.
• Projects that work as well for you as the other way around. From short and snappy to more in-depth: whatever fits your ambition;
• Clients that will make you feel like a proud ambassador, such as Google, Spotify and Gucci;
• Best of both worlds: the pros of an international leading agency with the energy of a local studio.

We strongly support diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for everyone at DEPT®. Ultimately, we are looking for a unique individual who wants to strengthen our work and community. 

YOU:

• Enjoy working in a fast-paced, ever-changing and cross-functional environment on a global scale;
• Can solve problems via analysis and putting your critical thinking skills to the test;
• Have an interest in strategy consulting;
• Enjoy making presentations and reports;
• Are you in your (pen)ultimate year of your bachelor, or currently doing your master's degree;

• Are a strong communicator;
• Have an excellent academic background;
• Are available full-time from July 1st or September 1st for 5 or 6+ months
• Will be enrolled for the duration of the internship;
• Are located in the Netherlands.

WE OFFER:

• DEPT® has been named A Great Place To Work in 2022 and certified B-Corp® since 2021 - award winning in the best way possible.
• The choice to work where you are most productive: whether that is in one of our offices, or work from home.
