Entering and Growing in Logistics & Supply Chain in The Netherlands without Perfect Dutch
Hosted by Hillmann Batuo (Doctor & Creator) and Lamin Jallow (Operations Manager at CEVA logistics).
🚨 Are you stuck in a “survival job” in the Netherlands? Or unsure how to break into a stable, well-paying career — especially without perfect Dutch? You’re not alone!
Many talented migrants remain stuck not because they lack ability, but because they lack exposure and direction. It’s time to stop underestimating your value and start building a future in one of the Netherlands' most robust industries.
Join us for an intensive and practical webinar designed to move you from employment survival to career growth. We aren't just here to motivate you; we are here to give you the blueprint for the Dutch logistics sector.
