Who are you?
We are not looking for an expert in the area. We are first and foremost looking for someone who is interested in the area and wants to become an expert in the area - we will teach you the Limepack way, and when you are the domain expert in the company you will be a part of changing the Limepack way for the better.
You are proactive and confident on the phone
You have great Googling skills
You are good at Excel/Google Sheets or have the ability to quickly learn it.
You take a systematic approach to your work

You are eager to develop your own skills and set the bar high for the rest of the team.
You are ready to take on new challenges and want to be a part of building the structure our growing company needs.
We offer:
A young and international team, where your input is incredibly appreciated and can be quickly implemented. You will work with competent, motivated, and engaged colleagues who are not afraid of trying out new ideas – and who like to do activities together after work, and who like to celebrate a good week on Fridays.
We will teach you the ins and outs of your role and will be right beside you if you have any questions. We don’t expect you to know it all from day one – we want you to be a part of our team for the long haul and we hope you want the same.
