What can you learn?
Marketing Planning & Creation
This capability will be quite heavy in the VDM assignment. With VDM you’ll have the unique opportunity to work in a global marketing team in the food industry. You’ll work on Digital MarCom campaigns together with Vandemoortele team and agency. You’ll learn to build strong campaign plans with various objectives from raising brand awareness to nurturing leads. You’ll be involved in the collaboration with agencies from brief over campaign plan to production. Especially if you’re passionate about marketing/advertising campaigns, production and content creation, this role might be right for you!
Online Advertising
Together with Digital Marketing Manager & Performance Manager you’ll understand how to build customer journeys and campaign plans, leveraging strengths of all relevant touchpoints.
Customer Experience Strategy
In collaboration with Global Channel Manager Foodservice, you’ll understand how to translate a target audience to a persona, customer journey and touchpoint strategy.
Omnichannel Retail
Our key growth channel is Foodservice (Restaurants, Hotels, Lunchbars, etc) yet we are building omnichannel/360° customer journeys to reach them. So you’ll surely learn a lot about omnichannel, but in a Foodservice environment.
Analysis, evaluation and continuous improvement
To measure is to know. So in collaboration with the Global Performance Mgr and Local Digital Mkt Mgrs you’ll try to understand how earlier campaigns performed and how we can improve new content creation.
Email Marketing
E-mail marketing has strong potential for B2B & Foodservice. You’ll learn how impactful e-mails are composed (together with agency & copywriters) and how they fit the campaign journey.
E-commerce
Our Foodservice customers prefer to purchase at wholesalers where they can purchase all they need. Yet these wholesalers (and especially their online platforms) surely offer us great opportunities in terms of first-party data and communication opportunities towards end-customers. We’re starting to explore these so you’ll be part of a great exploratory journey.
Marketing Automation
Based on the campaign journey, learn to design and implement flows in Hubspot. Explore the entire customer journey from attracting new contacts to nurturing them to sales-qualified leads.
Growth Hacking & Conversion Optimalization
Test & learn is part of our DNA. You’ll be able to work on growth hacking from beginning till end. From listing A-B testing opportunities and validating these with local markets over developing content for it to reporting and sharing results.
