Intern Data Analyst

Job Description

At IKEA, we do things a little differently. We think differently, act differently, and work differently as well. We like to break things—like rules—and then make things, like music-playing lamps and beds disguised as sofas. It’s all part of our vision: to create a better everyday life for the many people. By 2030, we hope to help millions more look forward to going home. Maybe you can help us? 

About The Area 

Core Business Retail Concept is dedicated to protecting, expanding, and developing the IKEA Concept and the IKEA Brand in both existing and new markets. This includes sharing IKEA knowledge and learning across the franchise system.  Retail Concept consists of the following areas: Brand & Marketing, Expansion, Learning, Retail Experience and Retail Concept Operations.

We offer unique IKEA specialist competence in developing, improving, designing, establishing, and operating IKEA Customer Meeting Points based on a market approach across all IKEA markets.
