Intro
Is packaging more than just cardboard and tape to you? It's the first impression an online retailer makes on their customers.
We're expanding our packaging and packaging materials business division in Leipzig. This allows us to offer our business customers, with a focus on the e-commerce target group, exactly what they need for their business. All with solid momentum and growth potential. What's still missing is someone who gives this project sales legs: You lay the foundation for inbound and outbound sales, build a structure that grows with us, and ensure that individual buyers become loyal repeat customers.
In short: You're the engine that turns a young, ambitious project into a solid pillar. Sounds like your stage with an existing network in the packaging & cardboard sector? Then apply now!

Why Us?
- Work 4 Days & 3 Days for Yourself: At us, the 4-day week isn't an extra—it's standard. More time for life, every week. Whether you work in our Leipzig office or remotely from anywhere in Germany—you have the choice. Flexible working hours are included. We rely on trust, give you responsibility, and offer you a permanent contract from day one.
- Shape Rather Than Just Execute: You want to think along, contribute, and really make a difference? That's exactly what Händlerbund is about.
