Visibility & Activation Officer Retail… at Suntory… · Location…

About Suntory

At Suntory Beverage & Food, we boldly move forward together towards our ambition of becoming a world-leading, next-generation global beverage company.

You will have the opportunity to work with talented and inspiring colleagues, the freedom to dream big and think differently, and an environment where you can bring your true self to work and Unleash Your Spirit.

About the role

As our Visibility & Activation Officer Retail Benelux, you will coordinate the operational delivery of retail visibility and activation tools across the Benelux region.

You will translate agreed brand, channel and Perfect Store standards into high-quality, sustainable and cost-effective point-of-sale solutions. From the initial brief and creative development through to production, deployment, budget management and evaluation, you will ensure each project is delivered on time, within budget and to the expected quality standards.

Your key responsibilities will include:

• Coordinating retail visibility requirements and activation timelines across the Benelux market.
• Translating customer, shopper and Perfect Store recommendations into relevant and impactful visibility solutions.
• Managing permanent and temporary point-of-sale projects from brief through to deployment.
• Coordinating agencies and suppliers across quotations, prototypes, production quality, lead times and delivery.
• Partnering with Sales, Field Sales, Customer Category, Marketing, Supply Chain, Logistics, Procurement and Finance.
• Managing budgets, purchase orders, forecasts and invoice follow-up.
• Monitoring POS inventory, availability, reuse, obsolete stock and write-offs.
• Tracking execution, consolidating field feedback and identifying opportunities for continuous improvement.
• Promoting sustainable material choices, reusability and waste reduction across visibility solutions.

This is a broad and dynamic role requiring you to move confidently between creative projects, operational follow-up and detailed administrative responsibilities. You will interact with many different stakeholders, so alignment, structure and the ability to switch effectively between priorities will be fundamental to your success.

About you

You combine a structured, detail-oriented way of working with an interest in creativity and retail execution. While you enjoy developing practical and engaging solutions, your real strength lies in keeping multiple projects, stakeholders, deadlines and budgets firmly on track.

You will bring:

• Relevant experience in retail activation, trade marketing operations, POS production, an agency environment or a comparable project coordination role.
• Strong organisational and project-management skills, with the ability to manage concurrent briefs and deadlines.
• Experience working with budgets, purchase orders, forecasts and invoice follow-up.
• An understanding of POS materials, display production, logistics or inventory management.
• Confidence managing suppliers, agencies and cross-functional stakeholders.
• A hands-on, solution-oriented mindset and strong attention to detail.
• The flexibility to move between different topics and priorities in a fast-paced environment.
• Fluency in both Dutch and French, which is essential for collaborating across the Belgian language communities and the Netherlands.
• Professional English would be an advantage.

Experience within FMCG, beverages or another fast-paced consumer environment would be valuable, as would exposure to Perfect Store principles, ordering platforms, retail master data or sustainable POS solutions. We are also open to profiles from creative or production agencies, junior marketing positions or strong FMCG sales-support backgrounds with transferable project coordination skills.

What’s in it for you?

This role gives you the opportunity to:

• Take ownership of end-to-end retail visibility projects across the Benelux region.
• Work at the intersection of Commercial Excellence, Sales, Marketing and retail execution.
• Build relationships across a broad network of internal teams, retailers, agencies and suppliers.
• Develop a strong understanding of how brands come to life at the point of sale.
• Strengthen your experience in project management, stakeholder alignment, budget management and commercial execution.
• Build a platform for future opportunities in Marketing, Customer Category Management, Account Management or broader Commercial Excellence roles.

You will join a collaborative environment where organisation, initiative and fresh thinking are valued, and where you can make a visible contribution to how our brands show up across the Benelux retail landscape.
