Agricultural jobs
The agricultural professions form the basis of the sugar process – from the cultivation and growth of the beets to harvest and transport. Our agronomists are in daily contact with our farmers and offer them targeted agronomic advice. The focus is on sustainable cultivation practices, such as smart soil management, precise fertilisation, and efficient water use.
Getting started in sugar production
In Tienen, Wanze, and Longchamps, we process beets into sugar juice and sugar from September to January. During this period the factory is running at full speed. After the campaign it is time to prepare the next one and to thoroughly maintain all the material and machines. That is why we need operators, technicians, mechanics, and other colleagues all year round who like to work in a team, but who also individually take responsibility.
Packaging & logistics
The packaging professions include the preparation and packaging of sugar products. When sugar is not delivered to the customer in bulk, it is packed in bags, packets, cubes, or sticks. Line managers, operators, but also electromechanics and maintenance technicians are the most important functions within the packaging departments. They ensure that the sugar products meet the quality standards and are ready for sale. This way, they play a crucial role in the production and distribution chain of the company.
In addition, the logistics department is responsible for the efficient storage, handling and shipping of the packaged sugar products. Logistics employees ensure smooth coordination of transport, the correct loading and unloading of goods, and the management of the inventory. Through their work, they guarantee that the products arrive at the customers on time and in perfect condition. Together with the packaging department, they form an essential link in ensuring customer satisfaction and optimising the business processes.
Commercial functions
Of course, we also need to sell our sugar. That's why we rely on strong commercial teams that are active in both the industrial sector and the retail market. These teams consist of sales representatives, account managers and marketers. They build sustainable relationships with customers, respond to their needs, and ensure that our products end up in the right place.
The marketers form the bridge between the company and the consumer. They analyse market trends, develop campaigns, and ensure that our products are positioned in an attractive and recognisable way. Together, they contribute to the visibility, growth and success of our brand.
Support & administration
Support functions within a company are essential for the proper functioning of the organisation. They provide services and expertise that support and enhance the core activities. These functions include accounting, finance, treasury, human resources, purchasing, logistics and IT.
Lab & research positions
As a food producer, we have several laboratories. In our factories, we perform quality checks to ensure that our products meet all standards. In our research centre, we work on the development of new products and innovative applications.
