Internships in France

From developing new aircraft models to implementing revolutionary technologies, Toulouse with its 35,000 employees working in many central functions - finance, marketing, engineering, customer services - is the Airbus headquarters. 

The FALs (Final Assembly Line) in Blagnac include the entire range of commercial airliners (A320, A330, A350 and A380 families) and aircraft painting.

In the south, the Space Systems teams are responsible for the design, development and production of satellites and space services, as well as certain activities of the Connected Intelligence and Air Power departments.

You can immerse yourself in engineering applied to helicopters and other rotary-wing aircraft at Marignane. From design to maintenance, apprentices acquire invaluable skills on these exciting aircraft, which are at the heart of safety and personal assistance issues. 

Marignane is home to the headquarters of Airbus Helicopters. Nearly 9,000 employees at the site are involved in almost every aspect of the helicopter industry, and offer a broad view of the product range for civil, government, military, police and parapublic use aircraft.

Discover interns opportunities in the defence and space sectors near the French capital. 

Located in the south-west suburbs of Paris, the Elancourt site focuses on intelligence, secure and satellite communications, C4ISR, maritime and cyber security, as well as on-board space and defence electronics, all of which contribute to making Airbus the European leader in defence, space and security and the No. 1 defence supplier in France. 

Around 650 people work on the Paris-Le Bourget site in Dugny (next to Le Bourget airport, near Paris), within this Center of Excellence specializing in the production of rotor blades and research on materials composites. Interns on site have the unique opportunity to have access to all services, thus being able to quickly acquire knowledge about the division's activities and projects.

Manufacturing some 3,000 blades per year and repairing almost half of them, the site is an essential link in the Airbus helicopter production chain, whose ambition is to become the world reference in blades.

You must be looking for an internship that lasts between 1 and 6 months, and be comfortable working in an international environment. 

In addition, you must be a French/EU citizen or have authorization to live and work in France with an appropriate Visa.

Finally, to qualify for an internship in France, you must be enrolled at a university that is willing to sign the French Airbus training agreement (i.e. Convention de Stage).

Depending on your field of study, you can find an internship in Business Management and Development, Engineering, Electrical and Electronics Engineering, IT and Cyber, Manufacturing Engineering, Materials and Processes, Maths, Physics, Robotics and Supply Chain.

You can get financial compensation for your work depending on the duration of your internship. Bank holidays and days of leave are given, according to the length of your internship and the applicable law related to it.
