Introduction

Are you looking for a challenging internship where you can make a direct contribution to KLM’s financial performance? We are looking for an enthusiastic intern who can turn data into valuable insights and help us find smarter, more efficient and innovative ways to improve our processes.

What are you going to do?

During this internship, you’ll work at the intersection of Finance, Data and Business. You’ll develop dashboards for both Corporate Finance and KLM’s business units, provide data-driven insights, and support financial analyses and process improvements. You’ll be a full member of the Real Estate & Facility Contracting (RE&FC) Control team, with the opportunity to make an impact by putting your own ideas into practice.

Your responsibilities will include

• Analysing financial data and identifying opportunities to improve processes, including through the use of AI;
• Developing, improving and maintaining Power BI dashboards and management reports for our teams and internal clients;
• Translating complex data into clear insights and actionable recommendations for management;
• Exploring how AI and new technologies can make financial processes more efficient;
• Supporting the RE&FC Control team with forecasting, budgeting and reporting;
• Presenting analyses, dashboards and recommendations to stakeholders across the organisation;
• Working with colleagues in Finance, Procurement, Real Estate and the wider business to support data-driven decision-making.

Where do you land?

KLM’s Finance organisation is unique. Where else would you find billions being invested in a new fleet, or millions spent on new maintenance hangars? Whatever ambitions we pursue, they all come with a price tag. Finance provides the information, data and insights needed to support those ambitions, making it essential to KLM’s financial success.

You’ll be based in the Real Estate & Facility Contracting (RE&FC) department at Schiphol-East. RE&FC is responsible for real estate, as well as facility services and products, across the KLM Group. Its approximately 700,000 m² of property ranges from specialised industrial buildings—such as hangars, engine shops and warehouses—to offices and lounges at Schiphol. The department also manages facility contracts across the KLM Group, covering services such as staff restaurants, cleaning and uniforms. You’ll gain insight into the wider KLM organisation and experience the variety of its operations.

Your profile

You’re curious and analytical, and enjoy turning complex questions into practical insights. You’re energised by working with data and are always looking for ways to make processes smarter.

You also

• Are studying for a bachelor’s or master’s degree in Finance, Accountancy, Business Administration, Economics, Data Science or a related field;
• Have an interest in data analysis and process optimisation;
• Preferably have experience with Excel and Power BI;
