Team Details
See all colleagues on LinkedInThis position is part of the sales & marketing department of Consumer Dairy NL. CD NL's sales and marketing team consists of driven, ambitious people, who together raise the bar a little higher every day.
At FrieslandCampina, we work together to produce healthy and sustainable food for all Dutch people on a daily basis. All Dutch people are central to us. Not only as a consumer, but also as a colleague. We try to reflect the diversity of our consumers in our personnel policy. The world is changing faster and more complex. We are one of the largest dairy companies in the world and because of our unique structure, our farmers are both suppliers and owners of the company. We are successful because we are good at adding value to our milk, both commercially and in terms of the nutritional value of our products. We are also successful because we create an environment focused on equality, inclusion and respect. Everyone is unique but equally important, regardless of our differences. We believe that it is our differences that can make the difference and that an inclusive work environment leads to more acceptance and growth. FrieslandCampina stands for equality and fights for an inclusive and safe working environment for everyone, in order to get the best out of themselves. We operate in highly competitive markets and therefore need to keep innovating and sometimes taking risks to stay relevant. Both we and our farmers believe in honest business with a long-term focus. Sustainability is a logical consequence of this for us.
