Do you live and breathe marketing? Ready to make your mark in a fast-paced, innovative industry?
At XD Connects, we are not just another player in the corporate gifting world—we are transforming it.

If you are a strategic thinker who is passionate about building brands and influencing markets, we want you on our team!
 
Your Mission:
As our Marketing Manager (part of our Management Team), you will not just follow a template—you will have the creative freedom to create and execute marketing strategies that will define our future. You will be the mastermind behind campaigns that inspire, engage, and convert. You will work alongside our visionary leadership, talented sales team, and cutting-edge product developers to drive growth and impact across Europe and beyond.

  • Crack the Code: Use market insights, competitor analyses, and sales data to discover new opportunities and optimize our go-to-market approach.
  • Drive Digital Excellence: Lead our social media strategy, make our websites and web shops shine, and introduce innovative e-commerce tools that redefine our online presence.
  • Master of Multitasking: From managing marketing budgets to rolling out European fairs and catalogues, you will oversee every aspect of our marketing universe.
  • Make an Impact: Present market trends, campaign results, and KPIs to our Board, your work will steer big decisions.
What we are looking for:
  • You have the Experience: 5-7 years in a similar role, with proven success in digital and offline marketing (and yes, catalogues still matter to us) and bonus points if you have Nima A/B.
  • Creative Data-Driven Thinker: You are equally comfortable creating killer campaigns and diving into the data to track success.
  • A Fluent Communicator: Dutch and English are necessary.
  • Innovative and Collaborative: You think outside the box but work well with others to turn vision into action.
  • You Live and Breathe Marketing: You know the latest digital tools and trends like the back of your hand.
What we offer:
  • Freedom to Innovate: We embrace bold ideas and new approaches. This is your chance to be the architect of our brand's future.
  • A Real Impact: Your work will directly shape the way global brands connect with their customers—this is no ordinary marketing role.
  • A Fun, Collaborative Team: We believe in teamwork, creativity, and having fun while we are at it. No stale corporate culture here.
  • Competitive Compensation & Perks: A full-time position, competitive salary, yearly bonus, and plenty of other benefits.
