Internship Risk Management - Cybersecurity at ING Netherlands

Job title

Cybersecurity Risk Management Intern – Amsterdam – up to 36 hours per week

Curious about how a bank manages cybersecurity risks? Join our Information Risk Management team to turn your interest in cybersecurity into practical experience, helping assess risks and explore how effective controls protect information and support resilient banking.

The team

You’ll join Information Risk Management within Non-Financial Risk (NFR), focusing on cybersecurity from a risk management perspective. Working alongside information risk colleagues, you’ll support projects such as analysing cybersecurity risks, reviewing control evidence and improving risk reporting. Your contribution will help make risks and potential control gaps clearer, supporting informed decisions. Bring your curiosity, share your ideas and learn through collaboration with the team.

Roles and responsibilities

With guidance from the team, you’ll help translate cybersecurity information into clear risk insights and practical improvements:

• Analyse cybersecurity threats and risk information to identify relevant exposures and emerging themes.
• Review cybersecurity control documentation and evidence to support risk assessments and highlight potential gaps.
• Develop clear summaries and reporting materials that help colleagues understand cybersecurity risks and follow up on findings.
• Collaborate with risk and technology colleagues to gather information, discuss findings and suggest improvements to assessment and reporting processes.

How to succeed

We hire smart people like you for your potential. Our biggest expectation is that you’ll stay curious. Keep learning. Take on responsibility. In return, we’ll back you to develop into an even more awesome version of yourself.

You don’t need to be a cybersecurity expert already. To make the most of this internship, you’ll bring:

• A relevant study background, such as cybersecurity, computer science, information systems or risk management, and an interest in applying your knowledge to cybersecurity risks in banking.
• An analytical mindset and attention to detail, helping you assess information, ask focused questions and connect technical issues to potential business impacts.
• Clear communication in English and a collaborative, proactive approach, so you can explain findings, seek feedback and take ownership of agreed tasks

.

Rewards and benefits

This is a great opportunity to train with highly skilled people who are experts in their field. You’ll do a lot and learn a lot – not only about your specialist area and the bank, but also about yourself and whether this type of environment is right for you.

You’ll also benefit from:

• Internship allowance of 700 EUR based on 36 hours work week
• Your own work laptop
• Hybrid working to blend home working for focus and office working for collaboration and co-creation
• Personal growth and challenging work with endless possibilities
• An informal working environment with innovative colleagues

During the duration of your internship at ING, it is mandatory to be enrolled at a Dutch university (or EU-university for EU passport holders).
