Sealuxe is the European commercial entity of a major international seafood player, , operating a fully integrated supply chain — from farming and processing to the international distribution of both raw and value-added shrimp products.

What you bring:

• Commercial experience in shrimp products
• Demonstrable trackrecord in retail sales (supermarket chains, discounters or buying organisations)
• Affinity with and/or experience in foodservice as a complementary market
• Knowledge of international trade and end-to-end supply chain dynamics
• Self-starting, entrepreneurial mindset — you thrive in a build-up environment
• Fluency in German and English; Dutch is an advantage
• Based in the Netherlands, Germany or Belgium

What Sealuxe offers

• A key role within a fast-growing European organisation with international backing
• Direct impact on commercial strategy and market development
• Hybrid working: 2 days per week at the Utrecht office, remaining days from home
