Abt Global seeks bright, talented, and intellectually curious students to participate in 2024-2025 Quarter 1 Cohort student internship under its Feed the Future Bangladesh Nutrition Activity. As a paid student intern, you will have the opportunity to gain hands-on industry experience while being immersed into Abt’s organizational culture. The student intern will learn from some of the top experts in their respective fields while experiencing events/programs that are useful in any professional setting. Our program will consist of a robust and structured curriculum that encompasses professional development opportunities and a mentorship program. The student intern will work in person in Dhaka office, with a possibility of travel outside Dhaka (arranged by Abt).

The Quarter 1 Student Internship Cohort at Abt Global is 6 months, beginning in November 2024. The student intern must be able to work full-time (40 hours per week) for the duration of the program. We are looking for a student intern from Business Administration background to work with our Manager – Procurement and Administration.

What’s in it for you?

  • Did you know working in the field of procurement means you are responsible for making crucial decisions, such as negotiating contracts, optimizing product costs, delivering efficient and innovative operations, and dealing with suppliers?
  • Pondering a career in admin roles? Administrative jobs are not simply secretarial or clerical jobs anymore. Rather, they can offer you high-level career growth possibilities.
  • Great salary prospects, room for growth, and opportunity to apply your people skills – do these excite you? Then, you may want to consider a career in human resources.

Being a student intern at Abt in the Quarter 1 Student Internship Cohort will mean you get to learn about all these three career paths: Admin, HR, and Procurement.

Your performance and our availability of funding may lead you to land a full-time job in our project at the end of the student internship.
