Trade Marketing Manager (m/f/d)

We are Groupe Hamelin—an internationally successful family-owned company and one of Europe’s leading manufacturers of school and office supplies. Our products help millions of people around the world as they learn, study, and work.

Whether it’s a notebook, a fountain pen, or office supplies: We’re behind many everyday products—with strong brands like Oxford, Pelikan, Herlitz, Unilux, and Elba.

What matters to us? Reliable products, clear values, and a work environment where people can count on one another. Because good organization starts not only in the notebook—but also within the team.

For our location in Hanover, we are looking for a dedicated individual to join us as soon as possible as a
