Procurement Intern

Become a Part of the NIKE, Inc. Team 
 
NIKE, Inc. does more than outfit the world’s best athletes. It is a place to explore potential, obliterate boundaries and push out the edges of what can be. The company looks for people who can grow, think, dream and create. Its culture thrives by embracing diversity and rewarding imagination. The brand seeks achievers, leaders and visionaries. At Nike, it’s about each person bringing skills and passion to a challenging and constantly evolving game. 

Our Procurement team helps Nike win by leveraging our suppliers and our scale. We partner with our stakeholders to drive value. We challenge the status quo and bring innovative thinking. We use facts to create leverage. We are motivated by results, not by process. And we act as one team across the globe. Thus, we are a magnet and engine for talent – we bring in the best people from across the globe, challenge them to grow and help them build a career at Nike, within or beyond Procurement. 

We live into this mission via excellence in analytics, strategy development, stakeholder relationships, strategy execution, negotiating, contracting, and supplier management. Our work spans the entire company, giving our team a unique Nike, Inc. viewpoint. As an intern with Procurement you will learn about and become part of our team, with the opportunity to support and drive strategic work.  
 
Intern Experience 
As an intern with Procurement you will get a preview of “The Procurement Analyst Program”, the development program that you will potentially be hired into as an entry-level full-time employee. This program provides a rotational experience where you move to a new team within Procurement every 6 months, gaining a broad portfolio of experience while tackling and owning strategic projects. The rotational experience, alongside professional training and mentorship, enables you to develop a deep understanding of our Procurement business; how we make Nike more competitive, efficient, and sustainable.  

You do not need Procurement experience to work as an intern with our team: we will teach you.
