Meet our trainees
You’ve made it this far so we can safely assume you’re keen to hear more about our Mainfreight Development Programme in Belgium and across Europe. The best way to find out if our traineeship is right for you is to hear from some of our Future Leaders. After all, they were once in your shoes! Any questions about the programme? Get in touch by filling in the contact form on the bottom of this page and we’ll get back to you as soon as possible. Looking forward to hearing from you!
I started in our Air & Ocean export team and went to London the year after to gain experience in sales. This is a big advantage of our traineeship: the possibility of moving within European branches. After that, I went into outside sales at our Rotterdam office, and a few months later I was asked to lead our branch in Paris: a massive challenge with only 2,5 years experience, but an opportunity I wanted to grab with both hands! This shows the largest benefit of our traineeship: the growth opportunities.

After gaining a lot of knowledge and experience in 4 different roles, varying from the Warehouse floor, to Transport planning and Sales, I will continue as a Teamleader for Transport. What I love about this traineeship is that you see many different aspects of the business and get to know the operations first, before moving into a leading position. The group of trainees is very close and often meets; not only for training, trainee sessions and team building weekends, but for dinner and drinks as well!

Team Leader EU West, Transport 's-Heerenberg
