Intern Colour Material Finish (CMF) (m\/f\/d) \u2013 Kia Europe Design Centre, Frankfurt am Main, Germany<\/h1>\n

Job Overview<\/h2>\n

The Kia Europe Design Centre in Frankfurt am Main is offering an internship in Colour, Material and Finish design. The placement is open to students of all genders who remain enrolled at university throughout.<\/p>\n

The intern works on Kia’s advanced and production car projects, supporting the experienced CMF team as it develops colour, material and finish proposals for both interiors and exteriors.<\/p>\n

The output is visual and tactile: concept boards, trend research, material explorations and presentations built around Kia’s Opposites United design philosophy. A portfolio is part of the application. EUJOBHUB summarises the vacancy; Kia Europe Design manages applications.<\/p>\n

About the Role<\/h2>\n

Kia Europe Design is part of Kia Europe GmbH and brings together designers, modellers and support staff. The employer describes a studio culture built for experimentation and for setting new standards rather than following them.<\/p>\n

CMF sits at the point where design meets material reality \u2014 colours, textures, finishes and surface treatments that determine how a vehicle feels as much as how it looks. The intern translates those concepts into material boards, visual presentations and digital experiences used in reviews, collaborating with the design, CMF and digital modelling teams.<\/p>\n
