Working Internship – Domestic Macro – Housing Market Research

The ING Sector Research team is specifically geared towards providing economic research. Co-operation with other parts of ING Wholesale Bank and the Dutch Domestic Bank Netherlands is a key component in finding solutions for our client base. The Global Sector Research team in Amsterdam covers (inter)national sector analysis about specific themes for various sectors as retail, manufacturing, transport, sustainability and real estate.

Role Description

Provide direct support to (senior) economists colleagues in housing market analysis. In the second quarter of 2025, the results of the new edition of the national housing market survey will be published. Those results, which are structured in a large database, provide many in-depth insights about the housing situation of households. During the internship, we expect you to dive into that database to find new insights that contribute to ING’s vision on the Dutch housing market.
