Why this traineeship?

From day one you will be involved in decisions that have a direct impact on our work.
As a trainee you will contribute to real (international) projects from day one, while exploring various parts of our organisation. This program is designed for young professionals who want responsibility, learn quickly, and grow into leadership roles within a global, innovative, family-owned company.

 

What you will do

Your traineeship lasts 24 months and consists of three assignments of approximately eight months each, based on your commercial background. Two assignments are in the Netherlands and one takes place at one of our international locations. You will be part of a group of five trainees who are each completing their Management Traineeship in a different discipline or assignment.

Royal Terberg Group is building a strong global Sales and Product Management team and further developing its processes. This team will support our factories, regional offices, distributors, and customers worldwide. As a trainee, you will be involved in key growth projects such as implementing a CRM system, expanding sales training modules for the Terberg Academy, and implementing small process improvements using Six Sigma - Green Belt level.

You will work directly with team members, day-to-day operations and data to help identify and implement improvements. Throughout the project, you will receive support and guidance to develop your skills while making a meaningful impact.

In summary, you will get the chance to:

  • Lead or contribute to business projects with measurable impact
  • Work closely with colleagues from different countries and disciplines
  • Build a strong internal and international network
  • Take ownership as you develop your skills
  • Gain experience in both operational environments and strategic settings

Your growth is at the centre of the program. We support you through:

  • Personal coaching and mentoring
  • Leadership and skills training
  • Regular feedback and guidance
  • Exposure to senior leaders and cross divisional teams
  • Challenging assignments that stretch your capabilities

 

After the traineeship

Towards the end of the program, we will determine your next step within the organisation, together. This could be a first leadership or project management role, either in the Netherlands or abroad, depending on your strengths, interests and ambitions.
