Are you a university student or recent graduate eager to kickstart your career in the dynamic world of railways? We are excited to announce a unique traineeship opportunity that will empower you with invaluable insights and hands-on experience in both operational and strategic environments within the railway sector. Starting in September, this traineeship offers a remarkable chance to immerse yourself in the workings of rail freight transport while contributing to strategic projects aimed at enhancing the railway landscape across Europe.
During your traineeship, you will primarily be based in Prague at the headquarters of ČD Cargo, a leading rail freight operator in Europe. Here, you will gain an in-depth understanding of daily business operations and support staff in various operational tasks. Additionally, you will spend time at the Forum Train Europe office in Bern, Switzerland, where you will work on strategic initiatives that shape the future of railway transport. This dual exposure ensures a tailored experience that aligns with your interests and career aspirations, allowing you to develop both hard and soft skills essential for success in the industry.
As a trainee, you can expect to engage in meaningful projects that contribute to the development of European standardisation and capacity management processes. You will collaborate with representatives from various Railway Undertakings, enhancing your international business experience. Furthermore, you will have opportunities for business trips across Europe, gaining firsthand experience in the logistics and management of rail freight services.
This traineeship is ideally suited for individuals with a passion for railways and a strong motivation to advance their careers in this sector. While there is no guarantee of permanent positions at ČD Cargo or Forum Train Europe post-traineeship, we are committed to helping you find your place within the railway industry. Given the increasing demand for highly qualified personnel in the sector, this traineeship serves as an excellent stepping stone toward a successful career path.
