Apply →

Working directly with the Engagement Director, you will act as a versatile pivot for the group’s corporate social responsibility initiatives. You will take the lead on animating internal networks, specifically managing climate awareness workshops and professional mentoring programs for refugees and students. Your work bridges the gap between high-level strategy and daily employee participation, ensuring that social and environmental commitments are woven into the fabric of the organization.

This role is unique because IDEX has recently transitioned to a mission-driven company status, meaning your work directly supports the legal and operational framework of this transformation. You will participate in preparing for external audits and mission committee meetings, providing a rare front-row seat to how a major energy player formalizes its societal purpose. It is about moving beyond compliance to prove that decarbonizing territories can coexist with profound social inclusion.

This suits someone who is a proactive communicator and a rigorous project coordinator currently pursuing a Master’s degree. You should enjoy blending technical carbon data analysis with the high-energy demands of community animation and internal events.

Job FAQs

What are the main missions and responsibilities of this role?

The core of this role involves steering the group's engagement strategy through three main pillars: social inclusion, environmental pedagogy, and mission-driven governance. You will be responsible for the animation of the Internal Climate Fresk community and the coordination of mentoring programs aimed at professional integration for refugees and youth. Beyond animation, you will provide critical support to the Engagement Director by preparing mission committee meetings and organizing internal masterclasses on diversity and disability. You will also assist the environmental team with GHG data collection and update RSE arguments for commercial tenders.

Key learning opportunities for this job

This internship serves as a comprehensive masterclass in corporate governance for mission-led companies. You will learn the specific legal requirements of this status, including how to prepare for independent third-party audits. Technically, you will gain exposure to carbon accounting methodologies like the ADEME Base Carbone. On the soft skills side, you will develop advanced project management abilities by coordinating cross-functional teams and external non-profit partners.

How does the ideal candidate look like (experience, skills)?

The team is looking for a Master’s level student from a business school, IEP, or engineering school with a specialized focus on sustainable development. You must be highly proficient in digital collaboration tools, particularly Google Workspace. Since you will be facilitating workshops, excellent interpersonal skills and a pedagogical mindset are non-negotiable. A first experience in associative or professional project management will help you hit the ground running.

Advice to stand out and make a successful application

To stand out, demonstrate your ability to be both a thinker and a doer. Mention specific examples where you have animated a community or led a project from scratch. Showing familiarity with the Climate Fresk would be a significant advantage. In your cover letter, focus on how you balance analytical rigor with the empathy required for social inclusion programs.

What aspects of the company's sustainability is this role likely to focus on?

The role sits at the intersection of environmental education and social responsibility. A major focus is the decarbonization of territories through staff awareness and the mass deployment of climate education tools. Socially, the focus is on diversity and equal opportunity. You will be involved in the group's efforts to integrate marginalized groups into the workforce and improve gender equality.

What are the main challenges someone in this role might face?

The most significant challenge will be the transversality of the missions. You will need to switch quickly between high-level governance tasks and daily operational tasks like managing a database or organizing logistics. Another challenge is internal engagement. Persuading busy employees across different industrial sites to take time for CSR initiatives requires persistent, creative, and persuasive communication.

How could a typical day look like for someone in this position?

A typical day might begin with a coordination meeting to review the agenda for an upcoming Mission Committee. By mid-morning, you might shift to analyzing water and waste data for environmental reporting. In the afternoon, you could switch to a more outward-facing role, perhaps briefing new internal mentors or organizing a masterclass. Your day will likely end with creating a visual presentation for the sales team.

What are the opportunities for professional growth and development in this role?

Interns at IDEX are treated as full members of the team, offering high visibility with senior leadership. This exposure is invaluable for someone starting a career in corporate ESG. Successful completion could lead to Junior Sustainability Consultant or CSR Project Manager roles. The skills gained in 'Entreprise à Mission' auditing are currently in high demand across the French market.

The main stakeholders you might be interacting with

You will report directly to the Engagement & CSR Team. You will regularly interact with the HR, Diversity, and Environment teams for social and environmental programs. Externally, you will be the point of contact for NGO partners involved in mentoring, as well as the independent third-party organizations responsible for auditing the mission objectives.
