Are you interested in working with exceptional people in a high-performing team environment with some of the world’s largest businesses, financial institutions, and governments to help solve and address some of society’s most complex sustainability and climate-related impacts, risks, and opportunities?

We are Guidehouse, a leading multinational and multi-disciplinary consulting firm serving commercial clients and the public sector with specialized capabilities in strategy, technology, and risk management. We are proud of our sustainability advisory heritage, being one of the very first consultancies in the Netherlands focused on sustainability and climate change (as Ecofys) and delivering impact on developing policy, regulation, and global methodologies, such as SBTi, PCAF, Supplier LoCT and Fashion PACT.

Being a $5.3bn private equity-backed firm, we have experienced rapid growth, and our investors continue pursuing exciting exponential growth ambitions. This ongoing investment creates opportunities for our people to develop and gain multi-disciplinary exposure within a culture of entrepreneurship, creativity, and collaboration between our global practices.

We offer an exciting, fast-paced environment that fosters intellectual growth and rewards individuals based on impact, not tenure. We focus on markets facing transformational change, technology-driven innovation, and significant regulatory pressure. Our team develops and deploys world-class knowledge and problem-solving that leads to breakthrough solutions.

What You Will Do

As an intern, you will be able to work side-by-side with our consultants for various international clients across different industries on their sustainability and climate journeys. Projects may include defining sustainability strategies and targets, measuring sustainability impacts, and developing and implementing programs to abate greenhouse gas emissions or develop new products & services - all to drive real-world impact. Our differentiating approach in serving our clients is to combine advisory, strategy, and implementation support by collaborating and partnering with our clients to achieve their goals and objectives. Our project teams are staffed interdisciplinary, across borders and client industries to deliver the most value to our clients. In your role, you will learn, be challenged, and develop skills at a fast pace. Further, in addition to hands-on experience, our in-house training opportunities will teach you the diverse skills you need to succeed.

What Internship Options You Have:
As an intern at Guidehouse, you can choose between two tracks: a) work experience internship, and b) thesis internship.

Work Experience Internship:
You will work in a team on complex problems and deliver high-quality client-ready work. Interns will be coached to demonstrate business professionalism and an ability to grasp new concepts quickly to perform effectively in a consultancy environment. What follows is a non-exhaustive list of possible responsibilities.
- Deliver on multiple projects, under the guidance and support of an Associate Mentor
- Uphold Guidehouse’s values of respect, integrity, innovation, stewardship, and excellence and support our culture of inclusion & diversity.
- Shadow leader’s client engagements to capture information and provide it in a succinct and cohesive format.
- Keep key stakeholders informed on project updates.
- Synthesise data into clear analyses and provide fact-based recommendations and solutions for drafting summary reports and presentations.
- Ensure that documentation is properly managed, quality checked and organised.
- Build good relationships with the wider team and colleagues and participate in team, office, and industry events where there are opportunities.

Thesis Internship:
As a thesis intern, you will conduct research on a sustainability topic you are passionate about. You will be coached by an internal supervisor, who will guide you through the process until thesis finalization. In addition to the thesis, you will also be offered the opportunity to gain first-hand experience as a supporting consultant. Possible thesis topics are listed below but we are open to your suggestions as well.
- Designing abatement strategies aiming to reduce land-based impacts for corporates with a high dependence on the forest, land, and agricultural sectors.
- Reshaping procurement and product portfolios as an important step towards reaching net-zero targets in the fast-moving consumer goods sector (FMCG).
- Understanding the sustainability impacts of chemical processes and their value chains.
- Analysing barriers for chemical companies in their energy and feedstock transition.
- Fostering global sustainable supply chain partnerships.
- Creating social benchmarks in ESG reporting.
- Translating the energy transition into economic growth opportunities for local communities.
