We offer our colleagues flexibility in the way of working. At the same time, teamwork and collaboration are an important part of how we work, so we value face to face interactions. Our office policy is to spend at least 50% of the working time each month at the office. Most teams have set team days on which everyone based in the same location will come to the office.

We’re a supportive team, that welcomes everyone just the way they are. We work hard but we have fun together and make lasting friendships. Together, we have the courage to take risks and innovate – because we are dedicated to serving customers’ changing needs.

At Ahold Delhaize, we believe that what’s healthy and sustainable should be accessible and available to all. That’s why our approach is to make every choice our customers make, the better choice. From sourcing locally and ensuring farmers and other producers get a fair deal, to working with our distributors to improve product transparency in the overall food supply chain.
