Today, Lonza is a global leader in life sciences operating across five continents. While we work in science, there’s no magic formula to how we do it. Our greatest scientific solution is talented people working together, devising ideas that help businesses to help people. In exchange, we let our people own their careers. Their ideas, big and small, genuinely improve the world. And that’s the kind of work we want to be part of.

We are seeking a motivated and analytically curious Intern to join our HR Business Partner team. This internship offers a unique opportunity to gain exposure to strategic HR topics at the intersection of business performance, organizational effectiveness, and the future of work.

The intern will actively contribute to real HR initiatives, supporting data analytics, workforce lifecycle, engagement projects, and talent initiatives. This role is designed for someone eager to understand how HR drives measurable business impact.

• Contribute to the preparation of HR dashboards, executive summaries, and presentations to stakeholders

Future Ready & Organizational Development

• Support initiatives related to leadership capability building and culture transformation
• Help document and refine development journeys, stretch assignments, and capability frameworks

HRBP Partnership

Operational Excellence

• Support administrative and coordination tasks with a continuous improvement mindset

What we are looking for:

• Strong analytical mindset with interest in business strategy and talent management
• Ability to navigate ambiguity and think in systems rather than tasks
• Strong verbal and written communication skills in English (German is a plus)
