Do you already know how exciting the purchasing field can be? During your studies, you might hear a lot about marketing and sales, but the game on the other side of the table might be even more strategic and fun. Our A-brands team is in daily contact with many brands to create the best partnerships and deals. By becoming part of this team, you'll see what it takes to collaborate with these brands and support them in the process.
