Maintaining accurate data records to support the preparation of reports, dashboards, and governance briefing papers.
Contributing to continuous improvement projects focused on sustainability initiatives, process mapping, and operational efficiency.
Taking part in project work, mentoring, and development activities as part of your internship.

What we're looking for:

Currently studying (or recently completed) a degree in Business Management, Logistics, Facilities Management, Occupational Health & Safety, or a related discipline.
Strong organisational skills with the ability to coordinate activities across different teams and locations.
