In this position you need to be verbally strong, have the goodwill on the phone and are able to connect the right colleagues based on customer needs. You also get the opportunity to grow to other positions within Stora Enso.

As a person, you are brave and dare to challenge your peers, and manager to further improve and develop. You are committed and engaged, and your work is structured, thorough, and shows business acumen. You thrive in a fast-changing environment, and you meet deadlines. You also have great ability to build lasting, long-term relations with customer and our internal stakeholder. You find it easy and enjoyable to collaborate, both with co-workes and with customers and you have clear and effective communication skills. You communicate fluently in Dutch and English.
