Consultancyvacatures in Eindhoven bij werkgevers die een visum kunnen sponsoren

Within Philips Group Sustainability, we maintain an enterprise sustainability management system that translates external regulatory obligations and Philips sustainability requirements into actionable requirements for our businesses. The system includes sustainability standards (SUS documents), regulatory and sustainability memos, policies, procedures, and supporting guidance.

As sustainability regulations continue to expand in both scope and complexity, it becomes increasingly important that businesses can easily identify the requirements that apply to them, understand their obligations, demonstrate compliance, and integrate these requirements effectively into their local processes.

As an intern within Group Sustainability, you will contribute to the modernization and simplification of Philips' sustainability requirements management approach. You are expected to bring the knowledge from your Bachelor/Master in a technical field such as (Applied) Data Science. You will explore how requirements can be structured, governed, maintained, communicated, and deployed more effectively across the organization, while investigating how AI and digital solutions can enable a more scalable and user-friendly system. The goal is to help develop a requirements management approach that supports Businesses, Regions and Functions as internal customers, while enabling Group Sustainability to efficiently manage and maintain an evolving sustainability requirements landscape.

We are a health technology company. We built our entire company around the belief that every human matters, and we won't stop until everybody everywhere has access to the quality healthcare that we all deserve. Do the work of your life to help the lives of others.

How we work together

We believe that we are better together than apart. For our office-based teams, this means working in-person at least 3 days per week. Onsite roles require full-time presence in the company’s facilities. Field roles are most effectively done outside of the company’s main facilities, generally at the customers’ or suppliers’ locations.

Monthly full-time allowance between €500 - €700 gross, depending on your education level. If you need to relocate to The Netherlands specifically for the internship there will be a different allowance. Part-time internships receive the allowance pro-rata.

Housing compensation, in case of relocating to the vicinity of the office, €300,- net if location is in the vicinity of Amsterdam, €255,- net for all other Philips locations. To be eligible, your usual home-work travel distance needs to be more than 50 km or 1.5 hours of travel time (one way). Afterwards, you need to provide the rental contract from your (new) landlord.

Travel compensation, if you are not eligible for a free public transport (OV chipkaart - student travel product); you can receive max. €192,- net depending on your location. Paid holidays per internship term.
