Discover the Young Potatoholics traineeship

As a participant in our Young Potatoholics traineeship, you will be guided through different departments and projects throughout the company for two years.

The six characteristics of a true Potatoholic

Do you love anything fried golden brown and crispy? That’s a good start, but you need quite a bit more to be a true Young Potatoholic. Check off the following six characteristics and apply ASAP!

  • Master's degree

    Congratulations on your degree! We prefer our Potatoholics to have a master's degree in an economic, scientific or technical field.

  • Young talent

    You don't need any experience to become a Young Potatoholic. If you are already working but have less than two years of experience, you are also more than welcome!

  • Key competencies

    A Young Potatoholic needs to have strong management skills. You know how to motivate and inspire others and have an innovative, problem-solving mindset. You keep your eyes peeled for interesting opportunities and new market developments.

  • Common sense

    Agristo is growing rapidly, but we keep both feet on the ground. A Potatoholic is people-centric and customer-oriented, thinks and acts sustainably with a focus on the long term, and always uses common sense.

  • Not opposed to shift work

    You will work in a variety of departments during your traineeship. As such, a willingness to work occasional shifts is essential.
