## Job description

### Real ownership. Real impact. Build from day one.

Are you an ambitious graduate ready to tackle complex, real-world challenges at the intersection of data, strategy and tech?

The Future Leaders Graduate Program – Business Analytics at Picnic is a two-year launchpad for exceptional talents. From day one, you join a business team, own a business topic, and become an expert in your field.

At Picnic, we’re building the future of grocery. Using cutting-edge technology and data-driven innovation, we challenge the status quo and build the world’s smartest, most customer-focused supermarket.
We move fast, think big, and turn bold ideas into tangible impact.

### Tricks of the trade

- Lead with ambition: Bring your relentless determination, creativity, and grit. Take the driver’s seat and redefine the grocery shopping experience for millions. You will be expected to think independently, move fast, and deliver results.

- Steep learning curve: Your growth comes from owning real problems, testing your ideas, learning from your mistakes and starting again. You'll blend hands-on training with immediate execution, you’ll move at a pace that accelerates your growth like nowhere else.

- Solve real-life puzzles: Spot opportunities, use tools at the forefront of technology, and own the outcome end to end. Not just making slides, but building the solution yourself.

- Innovate across borders: You’ll collaborate with teams across the Netherlands, Germany, and France, tackling challenges that redefine how Picnic operates at a European scale.

- High-performance environment: You’ll work alongside some of the best teams in analytics and tech, people who set a high bar and expect you to do the same.

### From learning to leading

Throughout the two-year program, you’ll own business-critical projects from start to finish, supported by mentorship, learning sessions, and regular feedback.

You’ll strengthen your leadership skills in project management, storytelling, stakeholder communication, and giving and receiving feedback, while sharpening your technical skills in Python, SQL, Excel, and PowerPoint.

As your scope grows, so does your responsibility. You might scale your initial project or take on new challenges within the same domain. Either way, the pace is yours to set, and there’s always a new challenge to lead and an opportunity to make an impact. That’s why every journey is unique: there’s no standardized path through the program, just continuous opportunities to learn, and lead.

### Where you’ll make an impact

From day one, you’ll be embedded in a business team, taking ownership in one of the following domains:

- Consumer - Drive growth through pricing, supplier strategy, and our market strategy. Think: Shaping our successful market entry into new cities. Your decisions shape how millions of customers experience Picnic.

- Logistics - Build the backbone of Picnic: robotic fulfilment, demand forecasting, route optimization across Europe and much more

### Your superpowers

You don't wait for permission. You see a problem, build the solution, and bring people with you, before anyone asks. You've probably already started something: a project, a product, a business, an initiative that didn't exist until you made it happen.

### More specifically, you:

- Are about to graduate (or recently graduated) a Masters in a quantitative field

- Have experience in high-performance environments: consulting, fast-growth startups, or competitive internships.

- Show an entrepreneurial mindset: you build, improve, and take ownership without being asked

- Think like a builder: hands-on, curious, and driven to challenge the status quo with practical solutions

- You have already gained basic knowledge in PowerPoint, Python, SQL, Excel or alternative coding languages

- EU citizenship or valid EU working permit required.

Many strong candidates (particularly women) talk themselves out of applying because they don't tick every box. If this excites you and you believe you have what it takes, apply. We only hire when we find the right match. That’s why our selection process is intentionally highly selective.

### Why Picnic?

- Grow as we grow. We’re scaling quickly across countries and millions of customers and this is just the start. Grow your impact as we grow; we invest in your path but the driver's seat is always yours.

- Work with other innovators. Work with a driven, energetic team that builds, wins, and celebrates together (think of legendary Friday drinks, our Ski trip and our parties)

- Kickstart your career. Earn a competitive salary and step into a program designed to launch your long-term future at Picnic.

📍 Location: Full-time in Paris, with period trips to NL and DE

### Picnic Perks

🚲Health and Transportation
Through our partnerships with Malakoff Humanis and OpenUp, you have the opportunity to enroll in our company health insurance plan, as well as free and easy access to professional psychologists, workshops, and practical tools. Additionally, if you commute to work using public transportation, we reimburse 50% of your subscription cost.

🚀Access to exclusive deals and perks through our Works Council (CSE) and our partner Swile (gift cards, concert tickets, cinema discounts, and more)

### FAQ

Do I need a quantitative background? It's a strong advantage, but not a hard requirement. If your internships and projects demonstrate real hands-on ownership and data-driven thinking, we'll consider your application. You do need a Master's degree, basic knowledge of Python or SQL, and relevant work experience.

Does the program include rotations? No, intentionally. We believe depth creates ownership, and ownership creates impact. Rather than rotating across teams, you’ll go deep in one area, build real expertise, and gradually expand your scope as your impact grows. If you have topic preferences, tell us during the process.

In what language should I apply? English. Please include your CV and Master's degree transcript or any other relevant test scores (e.g., GMAT)

What are the long-term opportunities after the program? This program is a fast track into a high-impact career at Picnic, it’s an entry point for a long-term future, not a two-year stopover.

Career paths here are as varied as the people on them. Some grow vertically, building deep expertise and a team around them as their project expands. Others move laterally - from Commercial to Fulfilment, Distribution to Customer, or wherever their strengths and ambitions take them. What they share is real ownership, real impact, and a career they shaped themselves.

**Live in Teampicnic’s hiring system.** Read from the company's own applicant tracking system, not reposted from a job board — so it's a real, open requisition rather than an ad that outlived the role.

We remove it as soon as it disappears at source.
