Horticulturalist Intern

Salary Unpaid

We are a modern start-up that combines Scandinavian design, sustainable food supply and people well-being. We bring nature indoors, by growing edible plants in your workspace or at home. Imagine no longer having to import fruits and greens from overseas to your table. Instead, many of the imported greens can be locally grown right next to the consumer, all seasons of the year. Our vision is to have fun every single day and save the planet!


We’re looking for a Horticulturalist Intern to play an important part in our product development as well as other long-term projects alongside our fabulous team. Your main task from the get-go will be to optimise our service from the perspective of the plants, so that we’ll be able to produce tasteful greens in the most efficient way, ensuring the health of the plants and their growth cycle.

It's preferred if the internship can be a part of your studies in Horticultural Science and that you are now starting off your 5th year. We will tailor the internship with regards to your schedule, with the goal being to turn it into a meaningful exam-project and afterwards an employment at our office in Stockholm.

 

You are:

  • Studying your 5th year at the Master’s programme in Horticultural Science
  • A person with an appetite for problem-solving
  • Passionate about learning
  • Interested in Hydroponics/Aeroponics and indoor farming
  • A proactive and collaborative spirit
  • A "doer"

 

It’s a plus if you:

  • Want to create sustainable cities
  • Have experience partaking in a flourishing, start-up company environment

 

The position is for a 3-month (flexible) unpaid internship, to the extent of what fits your schedule. The focus of the internship is to develop your skills and see how you+Hollbium equals <3. Hollbium will equip you with a fantastic team spirit and a value-driven work environment (to save the planet)!

Working at
Hollbium

Hollbium - Better air, better food, better workplaces Hollbium makes indoor farming a natural part of any living and working environment for sustainable urban development and workplace well-being. We are passionate about the intersection of design, technology, and urban farming. In a strong movement for sustainable development and well-being, it is essential to contribute to sustainable urban development. Most of our population is living in urban areas with limited access to nature and fresh food. We bring micro-farms to where food is consumed and use unused wall space, for example, in your office. The Hollbium Loop combines sustainable food production with hydroponics and healthy biophilic design. Besides growing organic greens without soil, transportation or packaging, it is a multi-sensory experience (taste, light, cleaner air & scent) for increased wellbeing, comfort & creativity while stress is reduced in your team. The Loop offers early access to a new food experience that reduces emissions and waste while ensuring that harvest is unaffected by a shifting climate. We are always looking for the right people rather than the skills - get in touch!
