If jet lag, long hours, and steep challenges put you off, look elsewhere. If you thrive when you can proactively problem solve, want to surround yourself with remarkable people, and are ready to move the business forward-this program may be just what you’re looking for.\nAs a 360 Global Trainee, you will work closely with a senior EF leader who will mentor, challenge, and support you throughout your journey. Your tasks will be varied and unique-no assignment is too big or too small for a 360. We are seeking highly curious and forward-thinking candidates, with a strong interest in artificial intelligence and its application in business-though technical coding skills are not required. We value individuals who have the passion and capability to explore and think strategically about how AI can be leveraged to drive business innovation, amplify human potential and ensure a strong customer experience.\nWhat you’ll do\nOwn impactful projects from day one.\nStart in our European Hubs (Zurich or London) and rotate through 1-2 other offices. \nGain first-hand, front-line experience across EF’s core business functions-including sales, business development, customer experience, and market development-while engaging directly with our customer base in meaningful ways.\nParticipate in Global Trainee Summits designed for professional growth, networking, and collaboration with fellow Global Trainees and EF executives.\nBuild deep insight into the world’s largest privately-held international education company-its products, people, culture, and global mission.\nWho you are\nMaster’s degree, or Bachelor’s with 1-2 years of relevant work experience.\nFluent in English (fluency in another language strongly preferred).\nInternational work and/or study experience.\nRight to work in EU/CH and/or UK (if you have the right to work in the US, please apply to the North American role).\nWhat you’ll bring\nEntrepreneurial drive and a “nothing is impossible” mindset.\nLeadership potential with strong collaboration and communication skills.\nAdaptability and problem-solving in fast-paced, multicultural settings.\nGlobal curiosity and openness to diverse cultures.\nComfortable experimenting with AI tools in day-to-day work, with an eye for where they can improve efficiency, decision-making, or the customer experience.\nNext Steps\nApplications are open October 1-November 15, 2026, and are reviewed on a rolling basis. Cover letters are highly encouraged. If you have a technical background, please share your GitHub link as well.\nThe process includes:\nApplication Screening and we promise that our team reviews every application ourselves, no AI on our end so we ask you do the same. Select candidates will be asked to complete a Video screening that gives us a chance to get to know you beyond your CV and cover letter.\nTwo online interviews with a member of our Global Recruiting and Employee Development team, the head of the 360 program, or former 360s to evaluate your experiences and skills and ultimately assess what potential mentors you could be paired with.\n Assessment Day for a small group of finalists hosted in Zurich in early January 2027. During Assessment Day you will take on a real-life case challenge, tackle a group activity and most importantly meet with Senior leaders across EF who could become your mentor.\nThe program starts in September 2027-will you be joining us?","description_format":"text","description_chars":3727,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":1,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"English","level":"Advanced (C1)","optional":true}]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Germany","iso":"DE","kind":"region"},{"name":"France","iso":"FR","kind":"region"},{"name":"United Kingdom","iso":"GB","kind":"region"},{"name":"Austria","iso":"AT","kind":"region"},{"name":"Belgium","iso":"BE","kind":"region"},{"name":"Bulgaria","iso":"BG","kind":"region"},{"name":"Croatia","iso":"HR","kind":"region"},{"name":"Czech Republic","iso":"CZ","kind":"region"},{"name":"Denmark","iso":"DK","kind":"region"},{"name":"Finland","iso":"FI","kind":"region"},{"name":"Hungary","iso":"HU","kind":"region"},{"name":"Ireland","iso":"IE","kind":"region"},{"name":"Italy","iso":"IT","kind":"region"},{"name":"Netherlands","iso":"NL","kind":"region"},{"name":"Norway","iso":"NO","kind":"region"},{"name":"Poland","iso":"PL","kind":"region"},{"name":"Romania","iso":"RO","kind":"region"},{"name":"Spain","iso":"ES","kind":"region"},{"name":"Sweden","iso":"SE","kind":"region"},{"name":"Switzerland","iso":"CH","kind":"region"},{"name":"Estonia","iso":"EE","kind":"region"},{"name":"Greece","iso":"GR","kind":"region"},{"name":"Iceland","iso":"IS","kind":"region"},{"name":"Latvia","iso":"LV","kind":"region"},{"name":"Liechtenstein","iso":"LI","kind":"region"},{"name":"Lithuania","iso":"LT","kind":"region"},{"name":"Luxembourg","iso":"LU","kind":"region"},{"name":"Malta","iso":"MT","kind":"region"},{"name":"Portugal","iso":"PT","kind":"region"},{"name":"Slovakia","iso":"SK","kind":"region"},{"name":"Slovenia","iso":"SI","kind":"region"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Education","Higher Education","Language Learning"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-09T23:28:48Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":49,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.539,"p_room":0.9,"age_days":8,"expected_fill_days":18,"reasons":["conf:2","stale_co","win:mid","comp:junior,brand"],"computed_at":"2026-10-10T05:45:15Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/ef-360-global-trainee-program-europe","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/ef-360-global-trainee-program-europe.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-11T22:53:45Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":13185,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-12T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":93438},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=93438"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fef-360-global-trainee-program-europe"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fef-360-global-trainee-program-europe"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fef-360-global-trainee-program-europe"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/ef-360-global-trainee-program-europe\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fef-360-global-trainee-program-europe"}]}
