Your mission
As a member of the International Expansion Team, you will be responsible for the expansion of our regional operations as we enter new markets including internal scaling and external growth. This includes supporting the creation of a multi-level strategic plan that helps us grow in other countries and implementing this strategy in a new region. You will be supporting the International Expansion Manager in a very dynamic and hands-on role, so the ability to communicate, prioritize and multi-task while considering both bigger and smaller picture thinking are very important, as you will always be wearing many hats at all times in a fast paced environment.
uButler is a modern, growing organization that offers a 24/7 digital relocation service to Global Employees who need to find their way in a new country. Our Relocation Assistants, who work under the alias ‘Sophie’, help our Global Employees by making their relocation as smooth as possible. From opening a new bank account or taking out health insurance to arranging personal matters, such as finding a house or choosing a suitable hobby. Our local knowledge, service orientation and drive, in combination with a smart system, ensures that Global Employees have completely found their way in their new environment within a few weeks!
