Just like your colleagues, you enjoy working together with the team to inspire our visitors every day and introduce them to our fair and delicious cheeses and deli products.

The shops (cheese & More by Henri Willig and cheesefarm stores) and farms of Henri Willig have become household names in the Netherlands. Every day, we introduce thousands of visitors from all over the world to our delicious premium cheeses and delicacy products.

  • has an eye for commerce, is creative and knows how to take the necessary decisions and implement improvements thanks to his or her analytical view.
  • speaks excellent Dutch (or learning Dutch) and English.

We offer:

  • An excellent, market-based salary within the Food Industry collective labour agreement (€2876 - €3459 gross monthly salary based on 40 hours per week incl 8% adv allowance. Sunday allowance of 50% and travel allowance.
  • A job where you will work with great colleagues and receive visitors and groups from all over the world. Curious what colleagues have to say about working at the Henri Willig Group?
  • a job with personal responsibility and the space to think along and initiate matters
  • career opportunities and the chance to develop yourself with our own Henri Willig Academy
  • a permanent position with good performance
