Beiersdorf Trainee Program I BEYOND BORDERS

Currently the application phase is closed.

Please register for a job alert and you will be automatically informed as soon as a new vacancy is posted.

I started my trainee program in December 2024, and since then, not a single day has passed without learning something new or making meaningful connections. In my view, there's no better way to gain diverse insights into research and development — as well as other areas of a different industry—especially if you're not looking to pursue the traditional path of a scientist.
