International Talent Programme (ITP) 2026 - Human Resources

Ready to launch a global career and shape the future of work?

Step into ING's International Talent Programme (ITP) - Human Resources Stream, an 18-month global graduate experience designed for ambitious graduates who want to accelerate their careers while making a meaningful impact on people, culture and organisational success from day one.

As part of our Human Resources team, you'll work alongside experienced HR professionals and business leaders, contributing to initiatives that enhance employee experience, develop future leaders and foster an inclusive, high-performing workplace. You'll gain exposure to a broad range of people-related challenges while building the skills, experience and global network needed to accelerate your career at ING.

Your career, accelerated

Our ITP is more than a graduate program. It's an opportunity to explore different areas of Human Resources, discover your strengths and build the foundation for a successful international career.

Throughout the programme, you'll complete three rotations designed to broaden your experience and accelerate your development:

• First rotation: Immerse yourself in the Human Resources function and gain hands-on experience delivering meaningful work from day one.
• Second rotation: Expand your perspective through a new challenge, with the opportunity to undertake an international assignment within ING's global network.
• Third rotation: Deepen your expertise by joining a different team, building broader experience while continuing to develop your career path.

Beyond your rotations, you'll work on strategic projects that contribute to ING's future growth and transformation, collaborate with experienced professionals and fellow graduates from around the world, and receive structured learning, mentoring and coaching throughout the programme.

From supporting initiatives that strengthen culture and employee experience to helping leaders build high-performing teams, you'll be empowered to make a meaningful contribution from day one.

What we're looking for

We're seeking curious, driven and adaptable graduates who are passionate about people and excited by the opportunity to learn, grow and make an impact.

You'll bring:

• A Bachelor's or Master's degree completed within the last two years.
• Strong academic results.
• Up to two years' professional work experience, with demonstrated workplace experience highly valued.
• Excellent communication, interpersonal and problem-solving skills.
• A collaborative mindset and the ability to build strong relationships.
• Curiosity, initiative and a willingness to challenge the status quo.
• An interest in people, culture, leadership and the future of work.
• A global mindset and openness to international experiences.

We'd also love to hear about any internships, part-time work, leadership activities, volunteering, international experiences or other achievements that demonstrate your potential.

What's in it for you?

• Opportunity to complete an international rotation within ING's global network.
• Structured learning, development, mentoring and coaching to accelerate your career growth.
• Exposure to senior leaders, strategic projects and meaningful work from day one.
• Access to ING's extensive learning platforms and development resources.
• A supportive and inclusive culture where you can be yourself and thrive.
