Trade & Shopper Marketeer

"We're looking for a Rotterdam-based Trade & Shopper Marketeer who doesn't mind coworkers who occasionally chase their own tails. Because you'll also be surrounded by lovely people and – some would argue – even lovelier data. You'll turn numbers into insights, insights into strategies, and strategies into growth.

Our mission In 2016, our founders wanted to feed their dogs - named Edgard and Cooper - pet food they could feel good about. The kind of food that was as good for the planet as it was for their pets. But when they couldn't find this, they decided to make their own. Now, 9 years later, our pack has 200 employees and we are beyond proud to be part of the B Corp movement.Want to find out more about us?
