In this role you will collaborate closely with our Marketing Operations team and with our Marketing colleagues in Sweden. So, if you enjoy working internationally and cross-functionally - this might be the job for you!

Are you on the right track?

We are looking for someone with a degree within marketing or a related field (or equivalent through experience), with a broad work experience in B2C and B2B in an international environment. Automotive experience is not a must.

You have proven experience in managing events and brand activations. You are hands-on and can guide stakeholders and projects (from small to large – from briefing agencies to arranging logistics). You are also capable of taking the lead to engage the right stakeholders and bring visions together throughout a project lifecycle. You excel at translating a vision to a strong set-up. You balance the bigger picture with attention to detail, ensuring that all aspects of the project are aligned with its ultimate goals. 

With a deep understanding of our brand and what it means to deliver a premium experience, you ensure that every initiative reflects our high standards of quality and excellence.

You understand how to connect to customers, communicate consumer-oriented and how to effectively use experiences and channels to reach our audience and bring our brand to life.

Finally, you are fluent in Dutch, French and English.

On a personal level, just like us, you enjoy working in a team with people of different diverse backgrounds. You have a growth mindset and like to develop yourself with can-do attitude that inspires those around you. Transformation gives you energy and you are not afraid to take initiative and take the lead. You are proactive, organized and solution oriented.
