About us

At Dorel Juvenile Europe, we create innovative products and services for growing children. Our strong brands Maxi-Cosi, Bébé Confort, Quinny, Tiny Love, Safety 1st, and Baby Art can be found in over 80 countries worldwide and it is our ambition to extend our leading position in the market. Our European Customer Service division consists of 2 departments: Retailer Care (verkoop binnendienst) and Consumer Care (klantcontact). For our Consumer Care department, we have a job opening for a service-oriented, enthusiastic, German-speaking Consumer Care Representative for our DACH team (m/f). The position is based in our EU headquarters in Helmond, NL and you report directly to the Manager Consumer Care Northern Europe. Please note that this vacancy is for a locally hired position. As such, we have a strong preference for candidates already based in the Netherlands. In any case, candidates must have current legal authorization to work in the Netherlands. Dorel will not attempt to obtain immigration and labor sponsorship for any applicants.

Your mission

Key responsibilities

  • You answer questions and complaints via live chat, e-mail and phone with customized solutions in line with our Dorel Service Promise.
  • You work with ERP and CRM systems to answer all questions, register and plan follow up activities.

  • You recognize opportunities that can lead to the improvement of our processes.
  • You register improvements through internal systems. In this way you make Dorel every day a little bit better for our customers.



What a typical day could look like

You come in the office and the first consumer contacts you via Live Chat. Her car seat has a defect, and she needs assistance. After a good analysis of the problem, you arrange that the car seat will be picked up and quickly delivered to our Repair Center in Helmond. You tell the consumer that she can expect the repaired car seat back within a few weeks. Meanwhile, you get an email from a consumer who lives in South Africa and has a question about her stroller, the coating (fabric) is not good anymore. This falls under our Warranty and you are contacting your colleague from the Export department directly, to check how we can get new coating at the customer ASAP. Next, a post was placed on Facebook yesterday, and people are reacting with questions and comments. You switch quickly to ensure that we respond neatly within an hour. Then a nice surprise! Your colleague drops a box of chocolates on your desk. It is a thank you from a consumer that you helped last week and sent a small present (bath toys) as a final follow-up. The consumer was so happy with this, that she sent a picture of the baby with bath toys. You of course share this picture with your team!
