The Host Company
Our client is a world leader in the field of automotive and industrial lubricants. The company works closely with leading industry OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers). There is a significant opportunity to join a step out innovation and venture team within this major corporation.
The selected interns will be part of an innovative team, which has been running successfully for over three years building up a number of emerging businesses as well as an investment portfolio covering automotive and industrial sectors. The focus of the team is on the long term (5-10 years) looking beyond the current products and with the aim of future proofing the core business versus long term trends and potential market disruptions.
The innoVentures team are looking for 16 interns to form an open innovation incubator (Third I team) targeted at specific market ‘territories’ (being Intelligent Operations one of these) as a potential source of new business opportunities. The aim of the 3rd I team is to choose an area of focus from a broad scope, build insight and develop proposals for potential businesses delivering revenue over the medium to long term.
The Role
This opportunity will be attractive to students who wish to apply their specific skills and expertise in a progressive and challenging environment and with the ability to think broadly and deeply about the world; specifically the rapidly emerging technologies and the social and environmental changes that underpin many of the wider global market disruptions in evidence today.
Within the Intelligent Operations territory we are looking for ideas that will transform the production and logistics process for our business customers. This is an area that’s wide open for innovation with a global
audience across many sectors and industries. We see the following technologies and capabilities as being included in the scope of this area: 3D Printing & additive Layer Manufacturing Technology, Remote machine monitoring, Predictive Analytics, Optimisation, Used oil analysis, Machine efficiency technologies, and Industrial value added services.
Duration
6 months, starting in February/March 2016.
Location
London. The team will be located in the world's largest collaborative working space - the WeWork at Moorgate.
Languages
Fluent in written and spoken English (C1/ C2).
Tasks
Generate new business ideas to help the company transforming the production and logistics process for their business customers
Analyse the business and market opportunities both globally and by market
Set up and run test trials. Along with other team members, the intern would be expected to find out: What do users value and engage with or not? How do they react to various service related offers?
Personal Skills
We are looking for students who have qualifications and experience in one of the following areas:
Digital expertise – which may include web design, software development, Internet of Things, CAD/CAM in engineering space
Engineering background – Understanding of engineering materials – Design in the consumer, vehicle, or industrial area
Technical education with demonstrated ability to translate the deep technical expertise into applied problem solving

Have a track record of successful team work with ability to work cross functionally
Like to work in a more entrepreneurial environment where there is space for new ideas, wider thinking and ways of working and where supervision is more ‘light touch’ guidance rather than day-to-day management
Act as self-starters, adaptive to change and can respond quickly and positively to revised scope and direction of activities
Be able to demonstrate high level of capability, desire and intellect to become a member of this elite opportunity
