Job Description

THIS COULD BE YOUR EVERYDAY

Let’s do this. Let’s change the world. Operations is one of three foundational functions at Amgen with a mission to manufacture and deliver safe and effective medicine to patients around the world. The organization is spread across eight sites and divided into five functions: Global Supply Chain, Process Development, Quality, Manufacturing, and Engineering.

We are currently seeking highly motivated, hardworking individuals who will lead initiatives, strategic analysis, and business case development on projects across the five Operations functions. Along with meaningful interaction with key business partners across functional groups, this position will focus on making effective, data driven recommendations to the organization’s senior leadership.

With the support of their hiring manager, the intern will develop a strategy that may result in a meaningful change to the business. Using their analytical, leadership, and interpersonal skills, the intern will work cross-functionally to clarify the problem, measure the current state, develop recommendations through qualitative and quantitative analysis, and present their findings with a final readout to executive management.

This internship will be approximately 10-13 weeks and includes both project- based and experiential learning. Amgen promotes collaboration with senior leadership through a series of formal and informal events. In conjunction with the project work, interns will have the opportunity for professional development through training sessions, one-on-one mentoring, and various networking events. Interns will also be able to interact with peers at Amgen-sponsored social events. Interns are highly encouraged to network with staff across the organization.
