Who we are
This internship is based at ING’s Head Office in Amsterdam, within the Global COO and CTO organization.

The team operates at the center of decision-making, supporting global budgeting, forecasting, and performance discussions.

As an intern, you will gain hands-on exposure to how finance supports strategy: how budgeting and forecasting processes are run, how financial data is translated into actionable insights, and how business partnering works in a complex, international organization.

• Support day-to-day operational activities related to financial forecasting, business partnering, and cost modeling


• Assist in preparing analyses, presentations, and stakeholder inputs


• Support coordination and execution of process improvements, automation initiatives, and efficiency enhancements


• Collaborate closely with the team and interact with internal stakeholders across domains

Rewards and benefits

This is a great opportunity to train with highly skilled people who are experts in their field. You’ll do a lot and learn a lot – not only about your specialist area and the bank, but also about yourself and whether this type of environment is right for you.
