Gibbs is a data analytics consultancy based in Rotterdam. We help ambitious organizations advance both strategically and practically with a straightforward, no-nonsense analytic approach. Our work centers on making business processes and decisions data-driven, ensuring that customer and operational insights are fully utilized.
Many of our projects focus on optimizing marketing strategies, forecasting, and identifying cost-saving opportunities. We work across a variety of industries, serving clients like KPN, Blijdorp, Olympia, and the CBR. Our small teams typically work on projects that last several months, and we prioritize working closely with clients on-site whenever possible. This ensures that every project is customized to meet each client’s specific needs — no two projects are ever the same.
Opportunities
Working at Gibbs comes with some great perks, including an office view of the Coolsingel, the support of a close-knit team that prioritizes maintaining a healthy work-life balance, many social events, and knowledge-sharing sessions. Each year, we offer a number of consultancy internships, and we typically hire around two new junior consultants. We provide consultancy internship for students completing their master’s in econometrics, particularly in tracks such as Business Analytics & Quantitative Marketing, Analytics and Operations Research in Logistics, and Econometrics. During the internship, you will work on a real project for one of our clients, splitting your time between Gibbs’ office and the client’s location. This offers a valuable opportunity to gain hands-on experience in analytics consulting. With guidance from one of our senior consultants, you’ll manage a complete consulting project within six months — from the initial client meeting to the final presentation.
As a junior analytics consultant at Gibbs, you will work in teams on assignments for a variety of organizations, both on-site with clients and at Gibbs’ office. In your first two years, you will follow our internal training program, which includes a mix of technical and soft skills development. You’ll participate in modules covering SQL, PowerBI, presentation skills, and consulting techniques, among others.
We are looking for students who are passionate about data and skilled in building quantitative models. You should enjoy the challenge of translating insights into actionable recommendations for clients and have strong communication skills to effectively present your findings. Since most of our clients are Dutch, fluency in Dutch is required.
If you don’t get a chance to meet us during the Econometric Career Days, feel free to reach out — we would love to hear from you!
Note that we only hire Dutch-spreaking students!
