JOB DESCRIPTION

Sales & Marketing Manager Indonesia


Exter Company Profile

We are famous throughout the world for the traditional method we use to prepare savoury flavours: slow reduction and then roasting in the oven. Slow cooking, where we take the time to let the ingredients do their job. Home cooking but on a professional scale, serving the food industry. Enjoying the genuine taste of traditional cuisines. That is what Exter represents: pure flavours from authentic cuisines, using ingredients that come straight from the land and the farm. Fuss free. Prepared with passion and love - just like grandma used to, but now on an industrial scale.

We have been adding flavour to food for over 70 years. As a niche player, we excel in customisation and this has led to partnerships with food manufacturers across the world. Always personal and in close collaboration. We have a global presence and we have customers in all corners of the world. From Germany, Hungary and Spain through to South Africa, Thailand and the USA. Each year, more than 100,000 tonnes of food contain our flavours. We have around 80 employees in Zaandam, the Netherlands, as well as 20 local employees in Thailand, and sales offices in China and Indonesia.
