Internship Business Development Specialist

Are you studying an MBA or have a general interest in sales & business development because you have the ambition to open your own business at some point? Come join Got Foods for a summer internship in sales! You will learn how to build a prospect list, how to reach out to customers, do a proper follow up, put together a commercial proposal and maybe, close your first business deals. You will be working with Kevin Van Lancker, Head of Sales at Got Foods and a serial entrepreneur with over 20 years of sales expertise and owner of his own company Sportswear of Tomorrow.

Also his colleague Jonathan Gillyns, who is based in Belgium, will share his know-how. Jonathan works inside the food industry and combines over 20 years' experience inside very large companies to implement their sales & marketing strategies, with a focus on e-commerce. So you will definitely have the opportunity to learn from people who combine over 40 years of relevant industry experience.

What's great: you just need your laptop, phone and internet. We can allow you to work remotely with only a few days in the office / meetings. This way, you will also learn to work with tools such as Odoo, Trello/Asana and more.

As Got Foods is about to expand on a large scale in the European market, we are looking for super motivated people to join our team! Possibilities for full time employment are possible after graduation.
