Intern Sales

24 February 2023

Westland Kaas B.V., established in Huizen, the Netherlands, was founded in 1936 by the Westland family. The family own 100% of the company’s shares. Westland Kaas outsources its cheese production to a number of Dutch dairy cooperatives and is the owner of the brands Maaslander, Old Amsterdam, Trenta and Westlite, which have built up a strong position in both domestic and international markets. Westland recently spread its wings into the vegan segment through its WildWestLand brand. Our competitive edge is that we are an original and innovative family-run firm that operates with a great deal of sound Dutch business acumen. Do you like to get the best out of people, teams and yourself? Are you an enthusiastic and dynamic hands-on HR generalist who wants to help us build on our previous successes and make an impact? If so then we would love to hear from you!
