Communications Officer
Ammeraal Beltech - Heerhugowaard
Ammeraal Beltech is one of the world’s leaders in process and conveyor belting. Their products and engineered solutions can be found in many industries including logistics, airports, paper & print, distribution centers and in the food and agricultural industry.

The organization has a global network of operating companies that serve the needs of local customers in 150 countries. Together with production plants in 6 countries and 80 Ammeraal Beltech fabrication centers, over 2,000 employees deliver standard and tailor-made solutions to customers with products and 24/7 service. This combination of a geographical structure, strong market segment knowledge and dedicated product management is the foundation of the innovative and service-oriented organization.

Part of the larger Sales Development Team, the important role of developing, coordinating, implementing and rolling out global external communications and online media actions falls onto the External Communications department. For this department, which is part of the head office in Alkmaar, we are looking for a

COMMUNICATIONS OFFICER (with a strong Online Media focus)

Summary
The Communications Officer will work alongside a small team and report directly to the External Communications and Online Media Manager. This role is positioned as a generalist marketing communications function (helping produce marketing collateral, general agency coordination, traffic, supporting global subsidiary companies and various project management tasks) and has a strong focus (60% to 70%) on Online Content Management tasks and digital media.

Evolving in a global B2B environment with a traditionally strong technical product focus, one of the challenges for the Communications team is to help build and support the AB Brand in the marketplace. You will help produce concise, factual and compelling marketing collateral that will explain to our customers who AB is, the added-value we bring, and, the main features and benefits of our products and value-proposition.

While this is more of a “starter” position and will suit a more junior candidate, we are looking for someone who will grow into the role and take their place within this fairly new department. The right candidate will benefit from mentoring and training, but in turn he or she will bring, in addition to basic marketing communications knowledge, an excellent energy level and a positive can-do attitude. Being a multi-tasker and capable of juggling many tasks at the same time, and doing so with a smile and with a high sense of service and quality are pre-requisites for this role. Supporting and helping local AB staff worldwide with their marketing communications queries and needs so that they in turn can better focus on sales and growing the business is a major responsibility for the central External Communications and Online Media department.

This is a hands-on role with a primary focus on Online Media and Website Content Management task and activities (both for our public and internal intranet websites).

Primary responsibilities

  • Use our CMS to upload and maintain content on Ammeraal Beltech’s websites (public and intranet sites), taking a lead role in maintenance & development.
  • Ensure AB’s main website and all local country / local language variations are accurately updated. Carry out testing and report problems to IT support staff.
  • Be service oriented and the go-to person both internally and for the wider external AB community for Website content management issues.
  • Be comfortable with manipulating marketing communications content in all its forms (pictures, video files, texts).
  • Report online statistics and regularly fine-tune SEO and SEM criteria.
  • Update existing or help create new marketing publications (flyers, brochures, leaflets, presentations).
