What's the role?

The Martin Hilti Global Fellowship Program (also known as the Hilti Foundation Internship) offers German-language-proficient early career professionals from the United States an opportunity to build their qualifications through an immersive cross-cultural international work experience. Combining language immersion, professional experience, and cultural enrichment, this program offers a comprehensive approach to personal and career development.

The 12-month fellowship is based at Hilti's Global Headquarters in Schaan, Liechtenstein and will focus in developing professionally within a role on one of three teams: Talent Acquisition, Corporate Events, and Packaging (industrial operations). No formal related work experience or previous internship is required.


Who is Hilti?

Hilti is where innovation is improving productivity, safety and sustainability in the global construction industry, and beyond. Where strong customer relationships are creating solutions that build a better future. Where there is pride and a sense of belonging across our 120 locations, carrying right into our lives and homes. Where people are exploring possibilities, leveraging their potential, owning their personal development and growing lasting careers.


What does the role involve?

The Hilti Foundation Internship is a unique opportunity for American early career professionals to gain valuable work experiences in an international corporate environment. At Hilti's Global Headquarters in Liechtenstein, Fellows can strengthen their German language skills, learn to collaborate across nationalities and corporate functions, and learn valuable professional skills.
