Job description

Are you curious, creative and eager to make an impact? Would you like to contribute to the development of communications and branding within an ambitious international organisation? Do you enjoy taking ownership, exploring new ideas and turning complex topics into clear and compelling communications? Then we have an exciting opportunity for you.

At Chane, we believe in giving talented people the opportunity to grow early in their careers. This is your opportunity to take on real responsibility and help take Chane’s branding and communications to the next level.

Where will you be working?

Chane is an ambitious industrial bulk liquid terminal operator at the heart of an international value chain, working alongside renowned customers and business partners.

With our strategy Chane Unlocked, we are entering an exciting next phase. We are strengthening our organisation, building a more connected One Chane culture and further developing our international brand.

As part of the Corporate Communications team, you will work closely with and report to the Head of Corporate Communications. You will work across a broad agenda, from internal and change communications to brand development, digital channels and external communications.

What will you do?

You will:

• Help shape our internal change and culture communications, bringing Chane Unlocked to life across the organisation.
• Contribute to a One Chane way of working, connecting colleagues across countries, locations and functions.
• Run your own communications projects, from initial idea and concept through to execution.
• Help develop and roll out new digital communication channels, improving how we reach and engage our people.
• Contribute to our international brand development, strengthening the Chane brand and bringing it consistently to life across our markets.
• Create engaging content and campaigns for internal and external audiences.
• Work with creative and specialist partners, including designers, video producers, agencies, photographers and web developers.
• Explore AI and new technologies to make our communications smarter, more creative and more effective.

The role combines hands-on execution with project ownership, from creating content and coordinating productions to developing concepts and running your own projects.

Who are you?

You are curious, ambitious and proactive, with a genuine interest in communications, branding and how organisations connect with their people and stakeholders. You may be at the start of your career or ready to take your next professional step. You don't need to have a background in corporate communications; what matters most is your motivation to learn, your willingness to take initiative and your drive to make things happen.

You bring:

• A degree in Public Administration, Business, Economics, Technology or another relevant discipline, particularly one with an analytical focus.
• Intellectual curiosity, an analytical mindset and the ability to turn complex topics into clear and compelling communications.
• A quick-thinking and learning mindset, combined with creativity, conceptual thinking and a practical can-do mentality.
• A proactive and hands-on approach, with the confidence to take responsibility and gradually lead projects independently from start to finish.
• Strong organisational skills and the ability to work at pace, while knowing when to involve colleagues or external specialists.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills in both Dutch and English. English is our corporate working language.

Why Chane?

At Chane, we believe talented people grow through trust, responsibility and opportunity. We offer:

• A versatile role with broad experience across corporate communications, brand development, change and digital communications.
• The opportunity to take ownership from day one, bring your ideas to the table and challenge how we do things.
• Room to grow into larger projects and take on increasing responsibility and strategic impact.
• The opportunity to grow alongside an ambitious and transforming international organisation.
• An attractive employment package, including an annual salary of €50,000–€75,000, depending on your knowledge and experience.
• 30 days of annual leave.
• The opportunity to work from our new head office in the heart of Rotterdam.
