Move forward as Management Trainee at DSV in Amsterdam

Are you at the start of your career and ready to make an impact in an international working environment? At DSV, you'll have the opportunity to truly develop yourself through a unique traineeship focused on your personal and professional growth. From day one, you'll contribute to strategic projects, discover your strengths, and lay the foundation for a future within our global organisation.

Interested? Apply by 3 July 2025 at the latest. The selection day will take place on 28 July – so make sure to keep that date free!

You get it done

In a dynamic, international organisation where no two days are the same, you’ll get a real insight into the world of logistics: you’re on it.

How you do this? During the traineeship, which lasts two to a maximum of three years, you’ll have the unique opportunity to get to know DSV inside and out. You’ll contribute to a variety of strategic projects within different core departments of our organisation, including operations, commercial teams, engineering, and strategic management. By rotating through different departments, you’ll develop a broad perspective on the logistics chain and discover where your strengths and ambitions are best realised. Each project offers you the opportunity to add value, identify areas for improvement, and propose innovative solutions. In doing so, you’ll lay a solid foundation for a leadership role within our international organisation. You achieve this by:

• carrying out challenging assignments that contribute to DSV’s development;
• initiating and implementing your own ideas and projects;
• working with – and learning from – experienced (senior) managers who are committed to your growth.

Your team stands out within DSV by close collaboration across departments and a shared focus on growth and development. You’ll start alongside five other trainees, creating an energetic and enriching group dynamic where you’ll support and challenge each other. In this environment, you’ll have plenty of space to contribute your ideas, take initiative, and grow both professionally and personally. From day one, you’ll begin building a strong network within DSV and laying the groundwork for a successful career.
