About Our Client

Our client is an internationally operating organization with multiple offices and warehouses worldwide.

The location is easily accessible from the Rotterdam region.

As a Sales Support Officer, you will work closely with colleagues, suppliers, and customers around the world. The company operates in a dynamic market where the ability to act quickly is essential.

The company culture is characterized by short communication lines, an entrepreneurial mindset, and a strong focus on collaboration. Employees are given significant responsibility and the opportunity to take initiative and further develop their careers.

You will join an experienced commercial support team of approximately 10 to 12 colleagues, led by a manager who has been with the organization for many years. This vacancy has become available because a team member has taken the next step in their career, creating an opportunity for a new Sales Support Officer to join the team.
