Job Description:

   

Start Date: 1 July 2027

Location: London, UK

 

Ready to create impact, spark innovation, and kickstart your business career at a company transforming how the world lives and works? 

 

At Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), we don’t just imagine the future - we build it. From powering Europe’s largest AI supercomputer to delivering breakthrough technology solutions, we’re redefining what’s possible. As an HPE intern, you’ll collaborate with brilliant minds, gain hands-on experience, and make an impact that goes beyond your role - because here, you’re not just starting your career, you’re shaping the future. 

 

In a Business Intern role, you will join one of our HPE Sales teams in central London, contributing to projects that build the future - one big idea at a time. This is an excellent opportunity for a self-motivated and proactive individual to support the vital work of organizations and help us drive success. You’ll play a key role in delivering meaningful outcomes for our customers and partners while learning what it takes to thrive in a global technology company. 

At HPE, we empower our team members to make an impact – in our business and in the world – while fostering a culture that celebrates innovation, collaboration, and continuous growth. As an intern, you’ll take on real responsibilities, work on challenging projects, and be encouraged to bring your ideas forward. You’ll be surrounded by passionate people, learn from inspiring mentors, and be part of a company that values your development every step of the way. 

Successful sales professionals draw on a diverse range of skills, many of which are developed through education, personal experiences and interests beyond the workplace. An internship with HPE offers an opportunity to apply and strengthen these transferable skills in a dynamic, professional environment. Whether your background is in Finance, Marketing, Business, Strategy or an entirely different discipline, you'll discover how your unique perspectives and capabilities can contribute to success in a global technology organisation.

• Contribute to projects and wider HPE initiatives, including Innovation Challenges such as Innovation Incubator, where you’ll have space to suggest improvements and add real value. 

• Receive a structured four-week handover and ongoing mentorship, ensuring you’re supported from day one through continuous feedback and guidance. 

• Get involved in career sessions, networking events, and intern community activities that help you grow beyond your day-to-day role.

Recruitment Fraud Alert

We have become aware of an increase in fraudulent recruitment activities in which individuals impersonate our company or authorized recruitment agencies to offer fake employment opportunities.

We also never request personal information such as back account details, Social Security numbers, or national IDs via social media or chat applications.
