Job description

Internship Treasury Controlling Analyst: An internship in Treasury Controlling gives you the opportunity to combine finance, data and automation in a dynamic Treasury environment. During this five-month internship, you will focus on two areas: identifying opportunities to improve and automate existing Treasury Controlling processes, and helping to develop an automated Treasury dashboard. The dashboard will provide clear management information on KLM’s liquidity, debt portfolio and other key Treasury positions.

• Junior
• Finance
• 32-40 hours

You will be supervised by a Treasury Controller and work closely with colleagues in Treasury Controlling, Front Office and Back Office. This will give you a broad insight into how Treasury operates within an international airline, while allowing you to contribute to improvements in its processes and management information.

What will you do?

You will join Treasury Controlling and help improve the way Treasury data is processed, analysed and reported. You will analyse existing processes to identify manual activities that could be simplified, standardised or automated. You will also have the opportunity to design and implement practical improvements.

Alongside this, you will help further develop an automated Treasury dashboard that gives management relevant and timely insights into KLM’s financial positions.

Your activities will include:

• Analysing existing Treasury Controlling processes and identifying inefficiencies, manual activities and opportunities for automation.
• Designing and implementing process improvements using tools such as Power BI, Power Query, Power Automate and Excel.
• Gathering requirements from Treasury Controlling, Front Office and Back Office, and translating them into reporting and dashboard requirements.
• Helping develop an automated Treasury dashboard covering key metrics and positions, including the liquidity position and its composition, such as cash and cash equivalents, money market funds, deposits and securities; the debt portfolio, including key characteristics such as fixed or floating rates, currencies and maturities; and other relevant Treasury positions, risk indicators and trends.
• Contributing to clear management information and effective data visualisations.

The exact scope of the assignment may evolve during your internship as opportunities are identified. You will have room to take ownership and help shape the assignment.

Where do you land?

You will join KLM Treasury Controlling, based in Amstelveen. Treasury Controlling is responsible for providing control, analysis and management information across KLM’s Treasury activities.

You will be supervised by a Treasury Controller and work closely with colleagues from other Treasury disciplines, particularly Front Office and Back Office. This will give you exposure to several areas of corporate Treasury and help you understand both the reporting side and the processes and financial positions behind the numbers.

Your profile

You are analytically strong and interested in the combination of finance, data and technology. You enjoy understanding how processes work, identifying opportunities for improvement and turning ideas into practical solutions. You are curious, proactive and comfortable working with different stakeholders. You can break down complex financial or data-related questions into manageable steps and have a hands‑on approach.

In addition:

• You are pursuing a university‑level degree (WO) in Finance, Business Economics, Corporate Finance, Business Analytics, Business Intelligence or a related field.
• You have strong analytical and problem‑solving skills.
• You have an affinity for data, financial analysis and process improvement.
• Experience with, or an interest in, tools such as Power BI, Power Query, Power Automate and Excel is an advantage.
• You have good communication skills and feel comfortable working with stakeholders across different Treasury disciplines.
• You have strong written and spoken English skills.
• You are eager to learn and able to work independently while contributing to a team.

Above all, you are motivated to learn about corporate Treasury and contribute to improving how Treasury information is collected, analysed and presented.
