About Sailpeak

At Sailpeak, we are a Brussels-based consulting firm specializing in guiding Banking & Insurance firms through the complexities of digital transformation.

With expertise in Business Strategy, Data & AI, and Digital Transformation, Sailpeak helps clients navigate the ever-evolving landscape and reach new heights of success.

About The Role

We are looking for a Data Science Intern with 0–2 years of experience who is excited about AI, data, automation, and innovation.

This is not a “theoretical only” internship. You’ll work on real internal AI projects, support consultants on client initiatives, contribute to AI benchmarks and workflows, and help shape how Sailpeak leverages AI internally.

You will work part-time (2.5 days/week) in a fast-growing and entrepreneurial environment where ownership, curiosity, and initiative are highly valued.

If you enjoy dynamic environments where no two weeks look the same, you’ll fit right in.

You will:

• Contribute to internal AI and Data Science projects such as the Sailpeak AI Barometer.
• Support consultants on data and AI-related client projects.
• Research and benchmark AI tools, technologies, and market trends.
• Help design and build AI workflows, automations, and internal productivity solutions.
• Analyze datasets and extract actionable insights.
• Assist in developing prototypes, dashboards, and proof-of-concepts.
• Explore opportunities to integrate Generative AI into internal and client-facing processes.
• Collaborate with different teams to identify AI use cases and improvement opportunities.
• Document findings, methodologies, and recommendations clearly.
• Participate in brainstorming sessions around innovation, AI adoption, and digital transformation.
  
  

You bring to the table:

• 0–2 years of experience or internships in Data Science, AI, Analytics, Computer Science, Engineering, or related fields.
• A Bachelor’s or Master’s degree (ongoing or completed) in Data Science, Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, AI, or a related field.
• Basic knowledge of Python and data analysis libraries (Pandas, NumPy, etc.).
• Familiarity with AI concepts, machine learning, or Generative AI tools.
• Interest in AI workflows, automation tools, and emerging technologies.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• A proactive personality with curiosity and ownership.
• Someone who enjoys learning quickly and experimenting with new ideas.
• Ability to work independently while collaborating closely with a team.
  
  

Language Skills:

• Fluency in English.
• French or Dutch is a plus.
  
  

Other Skills:

• Comfortable working in a fast-paced and evolving environment.
• Strong communication and collaboration skills.
• Attention to detail and structured thinking.
• Passion for AI, innovation, and continuous improvement.
• Interest in consulting, digital transformation, and emerging technologies.
  
  

What’s In It For You

• Internship compensation aligned with market standards.
• Hands-on experience in a fast-growing consulting and AI-driven environment.
• Ownership and autonomy from day one.
• Exposure to AI strategy, data science, innovation, automation, and digital transformation projects.
• Mentorship from experienced consultants and leadership with backgrounds from companies like Google, PayPal, Semetis, and Sia Partners.
• A vibrant office culture in Brussels with regular events, knowledge-sharing sessions, and team activities.
