Global Manager Communications

Why Interfood?
At Interfood you can develop and grow. The atmosphere is open, honest and positive. We constantly innovate and you really get the global feeling.

What do you expect from your new colleague?
For me it is crucial to be curious, open to learning and developing yourself. It is important that you are a self-starter with a keen eye on stakeholder management. There is a lot of room for development in this role, and the team is also evolving. We are in a transformation from operating on a more executional level to a strategic approach with the company strategy as a starting point. However, as a small team, we will always be hands-on and provide support on an executional level.
