Deep knowledge of Danish FMCG shoppers is essential to Customer Marketing. As an intern, you will analyse shopper trends, shopper profiles and brand performance to optimize the customer’s dairy categories.

Cross-category projects

We are currently looking into different cross-category projects that will influence future dairy category landscape.

Covid-19 notice
We are busy producing dairy products so we can continue #fillingtheshelves and #feedingthenation. Recruiting talent to Arla thus stays one of our top priorities also during these difficult times. Necessity is the mother of invention, so we have moved to virtual hiring and onboarding processes, so we enable candidates and our recruitment teams to get close while respecting social distancing. If at the final stages of a recruitment, a candidate would prefer to meet in person, we take all the necessary precautions to ensure everyone's safety.
