- Proficiency in computer software such as Excel, Word, and PowerPoint.
- Fluency in French, Dutch, and English.
- Knowledge of the Pet market is highly advantageous.

In addition to the core responsibilities, this role demands a deep commitment to customer orientation, as you'll be responsible for both internal stakeholders (such as store teams) and external customers. You'll act as the single point of contact for suppliers and internal departments, navigating administrative tasks with finesse in a fast-paced retail environment. Demonstrating resilience and an ability to thrive under pressure will be crucial, as you'll juggle multiple responsibilities while maintaining a focus on delivering results.
