Our client is a major player in the logistics sector. They handle road transport, air freight, and sea freight.

The Antwerp branch is responsible for everything related to ocean freight. Around 100 employees work there and give their best every day to provide the highest possible level of service. They are seated in groups of four colleagues at work islands, spread over two floors. The atmosphere on the work floor is calm—sometimes hectic—but very pleasant. There is strong teamwork, and there is certainly room for regular laughter as well.
