Who are we?

You may have never heard of us before, but it’s very likely we have counted you and you have encountered us. PFM is market leader when it comes to counting people in retail environments. We build products for retail, shopping centers and stations that count and track people's movement and behaviour. Our systems are installed all over the continent and most of the largest shopping centre’s in the Netherlands and the UK are equipped with our technology. Our clients are spread amongst the retail industry from individual retail stores to large chains, transport hubs, local governments and real-estate investment firms. We count people everywhere and there is much more to come!

What we are looking for

We are offering a challenging internship in a young and dynamic team. Your work will consist of working with a huge amount of data and translate this into valuable insights we offer to our clients.
