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.

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.

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.

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.

• 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;
• Take a proactive approach and enjoy coming up with new ideas;
• Can work independently and collaborate effectively as part of a team;
• Have strong communication skills;
• Are proficient in both Dutch and English;
• Are available from February 2027 (start date negotiable) for at least five months, working a minimum of four days per week.

KLM offers you a very educational experience in a dynamic organization in which you will play an important role. You can develop yourself strongly in this internship, both personally and professionally. Additionally, this internship offers you the opportunity to build your network, as you will be sitting at the table with many different KLM employees!

Another advantage of an internship within KLM is the association by and for interns; KLM Taxibaan. This association expands your network and provides pleasant events and interesting excursions within the KLM organization. There is also an internship allowance.

Then don't wait any longer, and apply for the 'final boarding call' on 11/19/2026! You do not need to write a motivation letter; during your application, we will ask you some targeted questions. You will hear from us within two weeks of the closing date of the vacancy.

Did you know that according to research, women are less likely to apply than men if they do not meet all the job requirements? A shame. Because as far as we are concerned, 'the perfect candidate' is a myth. So, do you have the drive to still grow in some aspects of this role? We look forward to your application.

If you want to know more about the internship position, please contact the hiring manager, or email the recruiter for questions about the application procedure.
