Tech Scout and Project Management Specialist - Research & Development: Mercedes-Benz Canada needs stars like you
What it means to be a star
Without the stars that represent a team, a brand alone is incomplete.
Mercedes-Benz Canada represents not only the world’s oldest automotive brand, but one that is at the cutting-edge of sustainability, design, technology, fashion, and popular culture.
The iconic three-pointed star is always looking for the best and brightest to support its growth as a true luxury brand.
We are seeking individuals who want to be in the driver’s seat of this transformation, working alongside talented colleagues who represent the Mercedes-Benz values and who are ready to add their talent to the brand’s ever-evolving story.

“Mercedes-Benz is more than a car brand; it’s a futuristic, technological brand continuing to research and evolve its strategy as a digital and luxurious company, all while championing sustainable initiatives.”
“This company grants its members the opportunity to professionally grow and discover the extent of the brand and its presence in all countries. You are granted the opportunity to drive innovation in several sectors, as this company allows you to take your career wherever you like with our very robust framework of opportunities, whether it’s rotations, international assignments, education programs and more.”
“As an intern, I feel a great sense of responsibility and accountability at Mercedes-Benz. The high level of responsibility and contribution found in our internship programs is unlike my experience anywhere else.”

“Working for Mercedes-Benz, it’s certainly the brand and the pillars - but at the end of the day, once you’re in, it’s about the people, the experience, diverse cultures and backgrounds, everyone’s experience driving in one direction.”
