About the employer

Grab is a Southeast Asian technology company operating a multi-service platform across transport, food delivery, parcel delivery, digital payments, financial services, and business solutions. Founded in Malaysia and headquartered in Singapore, Grab serves consumers, driver-partners, merchants, and businesses across countries including Indonesia. In Indonesia, its services connect users with drivers, restaurants, retailers, couriers, and financial products through one digital ecosystem. The company focuses on using technology to improve everyday convenience and create income opportunities for driver and merchant partners. Grab’s workplace is generally fast-moving, data-informed, collaborative, and strongly oriented toward customer experience and measurable growth. An Intern Partner Acquisition role would provide exposure to commercial development, marketplace operations, partner relationships, and the practical challenges of expanding a digital platform.

Working in Indonesia

Indonesia offers opportunities in technology, e-commerce, logistics, tourism, finance, manufacturing, and consumer services. Jakarta, on Java, is the main corporate and startup center and is the most likely location for a Grab commercial internship. Bali has strong tourism, hospitality, and digital-nomad communities, while Surabaya, Bandung, and Medan also support growing business markets. Indonesian culture places importance on courtesy, community, relationship-building, and respect for religious diversity. Lifestyle varies from busy urban living and affordable local food to beaches, mountains, and island travel. Housing and transport costs are generally lower than in many international cities, although Jakarta traffic is substantial. Foreign nationals normally need an appropriate work or internship visa and sponsoring organization; tourist entry does not authorize employment. Confirm current immigration rules, health coverage, accommodation, and relocation support with Grab before accepting an offer.
