    • IKEA Nederland – Service Office Haarlem

    Are you looking for an internship where you can play a key role in keeping procurement operations running smoothly? In this role, you will be the backbone of our Procurement team, supporting colleagues across the business and helping ensure purchase order compliance and accuracy. You will work closely with systems such as SAP Ariba and contribute to well‑organized, efficient, and reliable procurement processes within a large international organization.
    What you will do:
    - Follow up with internal SAP Ariba requestors to monitor and improve Purchase Order compliance performance
    - Support colleagues across the business with the correct placement of Purchase Orders in SAP Ariba
    - Maintain and continuously improve a structured list of Frequently Asked Questions to empower requestors to self-serve
    - Assist the Procurement team with a variety of administrative tasks across the end-to-end procurement process
    - Contribute to process improvements by identifying recurring issues and flagging them to the wider team

    Our team within IKEA
    Can you imagine? IKEA started as a small mail-order company in Älmhult, a rural village in Sweden. Today, we are in 63 countries with a unique range of products. Working at IKEA means working in a world of ideas, described by our colleagues as a place where everyone is welcome and you can be yourself. We make a difference for as many people and the planet as possible. It’s also a place where you can shape your career and where there is plenty of room for your practical creativity and ideas. All this while working in a great team with colleagues who are always there for you and ready to help when needed. You will join a collaborative and hands-on Procurement team that values structure, ownership, and a can-do attitude. We are a diverse group of professionals who enjoy sharing knowledge and supporting each other — and we’d love to add your energy and fresh perspective to the mix.

    WHO YOU ARE
    At IKEA, we believe it’s important that you can be yourself. You are someone who takes initiative and follows through. When you pick up a task, it gets done. You communicate clearly and confidently, whether you’re chasing a colleague for an update or explaining a process to someone unfamiliar with it. Being organized comes naturally to you, and you bring a structured mindset to everything you do. You’re not afraid to ask questions, and you’re motivated by making things run more smoothly for the people around you. These qualities are essential in a compliance-driven, stakeholder-facing role like this.

    What else you need:
    - Proficiency in English (written and spoken), this is a must; Dutch is a plus
    - Familiarity with or willingness to quickly learn SAP Ariba or similar procurement/ERP systems
    - Strong skills in Microsoft Office, particularly Excel and Outlook, for data tracking and communication
    - Ability to manage multiple follow-ups simultaneously and keep clear records of actions and outcomes
    - Currently enrolled in or recently graduated from a relevant HBO or university programme (e.g. Business Administration, Supply Chain, Finance, or similar)

    WHAT ELSE IS IMPORTANT
    If you take on this role with us, you can expect the following:
    - We are proud of our informal, open work atmosphere where your opinion counts.
    - A fun, educational, dynamic place to intern and develop yourself.
    - In addition to all the knowledge and experience you gain with us, you will receive a monthly internship allowance of €340 (based on 38 hours).
    - This internship starts from September for 5-6 months.
    - Proficiency in Dutch is a plus.


    APPLY NOW!
