Internship Human Resources

Are you looking for an internship to boost your experience? Join our international team!

As an Allround HR Intern, you won’t be making coffee (unless it’s for yourself 😉). You’ll be right in the middle of everything that makes our people & recruitment operations run smoothly. From drafting contracts to organising onboarding days, from screening resumes to helping us gear up for our Rituals Peak ( Black Friday madness and Christmas rush!)—you’ll experience it all. 

Your key missions: 

• Help run our day-to-day recruitment: sourcing, interviews, follow-ups, onboarding;

• Support HR with contracts, personnel changes, exit processes, and data management;

• Be part of our biggest seasonal hiring waves—think Rituals Peak, Black Friday, and festive season volume recruitment; 

• Assist with internal HR communication, templates, and process updates;

• Work with colleagues from different departments to improve the way we support our people. 

🎓 What You’ll Learn 

You’ll learn a lot—fast. But in a fun, collaborative environment. Among the many things you’ll take away: 

• How recruitment really works in a fast-paced, people-first company;

• Practical experience with HR tools like ATS and HRIS systems;

• What high-volume hiring looks like (yes, it gets busy—but also exciting!);

• How data and structure keep everything on track behind the scenes;

• How to balance operational support with cultural impact;

• What it means to be part of a people & culture team that truly values people. 

🌍 What We Offer 

• A hybrid internship: partly from our cozy office in Amsterdam Westerpark, partly from home. 

• Real responsibility and real impact on HR projects. 

• An open, fun, international culture where your voice counts. 

• Guidance, mentoring, and plenty of room to grow. 

• A monthly internship allowance of €400-€450 per month. 

• Access to all our internal fun: BBQs, borrels, themed Fridays & more! 

• Experience in the airline industry and client contact rush!

🙋‍♀️ Who You Are 

You’re curious, hands-on, and not afraid to ask questions. You love working with people—and for people. You’re someone who likes to take initiative and enjoys being part of a team where no day is the same. 

You are: 

• Studying HR, Business, Psychology or a related field (HBO/WO level). 

• Organised, proactive, and eager to roll up your sleeves. 

• Comfortable with tools like Excel, Outlook, or HR systems. 

• Fluent in English (bonus points for Dutch!). 

• Available from September 2025 for 4–6 months, 32–40 hours per week.
