How you can
make a difference

 

Would you like to become part of a young international team and help shape Ahold Delhaize’s Not-for-Resale (NFR) sourcing department? Keep on reading if you would like to learn more about purchasing, improve your communication skills and take on responsibility! 

About your future team.
NFR Sourcing stands for Not for Resale Sourcing. We facilitate the business operations of all our European Ahold Delhaize brands by sourcing the indirect goods and services they need. Put simply, our department buys everything that you see in a store that’s not for sale. Examples of these items are endless, covering everything from flooring and shelving to our ovens, checkout counters and packaging for our private label products. We’re a truly European department, looking beyond borders to deliver the best sourcing solutions for all our European brands across the Netherlands, Belgium, the Czech Republic, Romania, Serbia and Greece.

Your new workplace.
The Procurement Excellence & Sustainability team is a team of ten sourcing professionals, all coming from diverse backgrounds representing multiple nationalities. The atmosphere within the team is collaborative, caring, flexible and fun. We have great ambitions, like to focus on innovation, and pride ourselves with providing the best support to the EU NFR sourcing crew.

We offer an interesting and versatile internship position, which will allow you to make an impact on European level. The team focuses on 3 main elements:

  • Procurement excellence.
  • Sourcing intelligence.
  • Sustainable procurement.

In this position, you will work 32-40 hours per week, partly from our headquarters in Zaandam and partly from home.   

We think it is important that you can be yourself at Ahold Delhaize in an environment that is open to different perspectives, an environment in which we are curious and value each other. For this position, we are preferably looking for someone who strengthens the diversity in our team, in the broadest sense of the word. Someone who brings a different sound from their own background and personal characteristics and is therefore a good addition to our team.     

This is what you will be doing.
As an intern in the NFR PES team you will work on many projects, stimulating European cross-border collaboration and improving European sourcing practices. As part of your daily activities you will: 

  • Follow market developments in selected sub-categories. 
  • Support our category teams with successful category sourcing strategies.
  • Build compelling stories and engage with internal and external stakeholders.
  • Create actionable insights for our category teams based on market intelligence. 
  • Support Supply Chain Sustainability activities.
  • Work on the design and implementation of new developments.
  • Coordinate and publish the European newsletter.

This is what we offer you. 

  • Interesting and varied internship for 5 or 6 months starting in Februari 2027. 
  • A lot of responsibility and room for own initiatives. 
  • The Ahold Delhaize internship experience (drinks, events and networking with all the interns at the HQ). 
  • Internship- and travel compensation (€500,- every four weeks). 
  • Internship where you obtain real work experience. 
  • Possibility to graduate in combination with 4 or 5 days of working. 

This is what you will bring. 
At Ahold Delhaize you will be working for one of the largest retailers in the world. Specifically for this internship vacancy you have a hands-on mentality and a team-player attitude. You supplement this with the following skills: 

  • Fluent in English both written and verbal.
