Your mission

Ready to own real outcomes and not just the deck? Join Holie's as Chief of Staff and help shape the next chapter of the world's healthiest cereal brand.

As Chief of Staff, you'll work directly with our founders and leadership team at the heart of Holie's growth.

In 2018 Holie’s set out on the mission to challenge the food industry with bold, better and healthier cereal and bar alternatives. Today we're active in the Netherlands, Belgium, the UK, and a growing list of export markets. In this role you'll work directly with our founders and leadership team to help Holie's scale globally.
