APPLY BEFORE MAY 3RD, 2021!

Whether you have a background in Political Science, International Relations or Corporate Communication, at VodafoneZiggo your career is immediately on the right track. That is if you want your actions to positively impact over 8.000 colleagues! After all, the Discover traineeship challenges you to take on challenging projects. Projects that, for example, shake up the foundations of our remuneration systems or safeguard legal compliance. And: no matter how corporate the track gets, your personal tracks always run parallel, because this traineeship is not just about discovering us, but mainly about discovering and developing your talents!

Your traineeship: the fast track to a challenging career
Lots of impact, lots of growth opportunities and lots of fun. That’s what the Discover traineeship is all about. As a Discover trainee, you’ll complete three different projects during your-traineeship. Two of these projects will take place in External Affairs. The third will pull you out of your comfort zone and put you to work in a business unit with a completely different focus. Can you make a positive impact there, too?

In a one and a half year program, you’ll discover who you are, what you’re capable of, where you want to be, and how you can get there with us. You’ll set your own course. This is what makes your traineeship unique. 

Your development path: discover your drivers and strengths
Personal development programs should be just that: tailored to your personal goals and ambitions. That’s the only way we can provide with you the right tools to launch your career at Max-Verstappen-speed. What to expect:

• Inspiring onboarding program, including meet & greet with one of our board members and the opportunity to meet a variety of colleagues and customers
• SCRUM master training and certification
• Work sessions that highlight exciting current business topics. E.g. opportunities for the Internet of Things (IoT), Big Data and Artificial Intelligence
• External training sessions in which you and your fellow -trainees discover what motivates you, and in which you specify your development goals
• On and off the job coaching by senior management, your project manager, talent manager and a personal buddy who will show you the ropes at VodafoneZiggo

After your traineeship: build a beautiful track record
After your traineeship ends, we want to keep your career on track. So together we’ll discuss what role suits you best. A role in which your entrepreneurship comes to fruition and you can make a real difference for customers on a daily basis.

Are you the next Discover trainee? This is what you bring to the table:

• A ‘minty fresh’ Master’s degree in a relevant field: Political Science, International Relations, Corporate Communication or Law can suit this track well

• Analytical prowess is a must: you think fast, can fathom complex processes, and find your way in no time. In systems. And in organizations
• Your CV lists more than your grades; you’ve already made a difference during your studies
• For this role, you need to be a native Dutch speaker and fluent in English

We offer you

• A fast track to a challenging career in an innovative and highly dynamic work environment
• A year and a half full of personal and functional training, and coaching by management
