The Active Ownership team conducts engagement with more than 200 companies in our investment portfolio to encourage companies to improve their performance on environmental, social and governance (ESG).

You will also participate in the conference calls with the companies we invest in to discuss their sustainability strategy.
The internship covers various aspects of the sustainability investing research space.

Current MSc students with strong academic background in fields like sociology, (corporate) law, policy & global affairs, business administration, and finance.

All the internship vacancies at Robeco in Rotterdam are open to students enrolled at a university during the entire duration of their internship. Our interns must also be eligible for a residence permit to do an internship in the Netherlands. This means we can recruit EU citizens studying at a global university or non-EU citizens studying at a Dutch university.
