Internships

Two internships available at SkyNRG: Future Fuels & Capacity Development

Type Regular internship
Assignment

SkyNRG is a scale-up that works at the forefront of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). For our headquarters in Amsterdam, we are looking for 2 interns to strengthen our team: one in the Future Fuels team and one in the Capacity Development team.

In the Future Fuels team, we have 3 focus areas:

1. SAF capacity development: initiating and executing the first development phase of our own commercial-scale SAF production facilities
2. R&D: building and sharing knowledge to develop SAF technologies and concepts with our technology partners
3. Advisory: supporting key players in the aviation industry to navigate their transition to net-zero, through creating SAF strategies and building SAF knowledge

The Capacity Development team focuses purely on the subsequent development phases of commercial-scale SAF production facilities.
This includes more in-depth engineering, sustainability and financial analyses.

As an intern you will contribute to one or two projects in these focus areas by working closely with the team. Based on your interests and background, we will jointly determine the focus of your internship, including in which team you will perform your internship.

Typical activities include:
• Conducting technical, financial or sustainability assessments on future SAF production facilities
• Developing knowledge on promising SAF feedstocks and/or technologies
• Performing analyses to understand the potential of a certain region for SAF production
• Supporting on business development for new opportunities
• Writing reports and composing presentations
