Airbus, Internship within Commodity Management for IT Infrastructure

As an intern (d/f/m) you will acquire an in-depth insight into divisional sourcing for IT Infrastructure for products and external customers. 

The internship covers three main learning areas: IT Demand Management and Standardisation, which involves learning how Airbus aggregates and standardises IT demands for complexity reduction and procurement efficiency; Supplier Evaluation and Development, focusing on the rigorous assessment and continuous improvement of the supplier base; and Strategic Supplier Landscape Development, where the intern contributes to the long-term evolution of the supplier base by analysing market trends, managing risk, and developing resilient sourcing strategies. 

By engaging in these activities, you will receive practical exposure to the full lifecycle of commodity management, from initial demand planning and strategic sourcing to ongoing supplier relationship management and development within a leading global aerospace and defence context.
