FPI Intern

Process Improvement Intern – Budapest

Want to see how global financial operations actually run behind the scenes—and how to make them smarter?

At Paramount, we believe even the smallest process tweak can make a massive impact. As a Process Improvement Intern, you’ll join our Controllership and Global Business Services (GBS) teams in Budapest. You’ll get a hands-on look at how a global media company operates, learn how to spot inefficiencies, and help us build simple, smart automation solutions.

If you like solving puzzles, working with data, and turning manual tasks into smooth workflows, this is the place to start your career!

What You’ll Be Doing (The Real Deal)

• Keep Automations Running: Help monitor, run, and support the daily automations built by our Functional Process Improvement (FPI) team.

• Troubleshoot & Fix: When an automated script hits a snag, you’ll be on the front line helping to debug and resolve simple issues.

• Build Simple Automations: Work on basic Excel macros, scripts, and workflows (using tools like VBA, Alteryx, Python, or SAP GUI) to save time for the team.

• Process Documentation: Map out existing workflows and write clear, easy-to-follow documentation for new process improvements.

• Team & System Support: Handle administrative tasks within our FPI tools and help colleagues clean up templates and data.

• Learn & Grow: Participate in workshops, online trainings, and team updates to build your technical and business skill set.

What We’re Looking For

• Student Status: Active BSc/MSc studies in Business, Finance, IT, Engineering, or a related field.

• Tech Curiosity: A real interest in process optimization, digital tools, and automation.

• Problem-Solving Mindset: You enjoy digging into data, logical thinking, and figuring out why something isn't working.

• Language Skills: Confident English communication (both written and spoken).

• The Extras (Nice to Have, Not Required):

  • Basic finance or accounting knowledge.

  • Any previous exposure to VBA, Python, Alteryx, or SAP scripting (even from university projects or self-learning!).

Why You’ll Love Working Here

• Real Mentorship: You won't be left alone—you’ll work directly alongside experienced pros who are ready to guide and train you.

• Practical Experience: Move beyond theory and gain resume-building experience with enterprise tools.

• Global & Inclusive Culture: Be part of an open, dynamic, and multicultural team in Budapest.

• Flexible Student Environment: We understand university comes first and offer flexibility around your studies.
