To work for AkzoNobel is to have the courage and curiosity to question. What excites us is asking the unasked. What inspires us is seeing the opportunity others cannot. This spirit has made us world leaders in many areas of global business and technology.
That’s why, every year, we offer a select group of beta/technical 3rd year bachelors and masters students the opportunity to look behind the scenes of our company.
You’ll encounter a dynamic and international environment that’s home to diverse disciplines and cultures. You’ll learn about our innovative products and cutting edge technologies, the design and maintenance of our production sites, and our commitment to sustainability. Above all, you’ll discover that there is much more to AkzoNobel than you thought!
Program
The two-day program consists of:
· Visits to different locations of AkzoNobel, including a research center and production location
· A compelling business case in which we challenge you to demonstrate your specialist knowledge, business insight, and communication skills
· A series of fascinating lectures
There will be plenty of time to talk to young graduates who work at AkzoNobel and have a similar study background to you. You will also meet line managers and HR staff so that you can discuss your career prospects with us.
After two days, you’ll know exactly how AkzoNobel fits into your professional and personal ambitions.
