International Account Executive EMEA – Retail Solutions

For leading fashion retailers, inventory visibility extends far beyond the stockroom. It affects whether customers find the products they want, whether stores can fulfill online orders, and where stock and margin are lost. Our RFID technology connects physical products to digital inventory data. Combined with our software platform and applications, it helps retailers track stock movements, improve product availability, and reduce losses. You position this complete proposition, connecting hardware, software, and applications to each customer’s specific situation.

As an International Account Executive EMEA – Retail Solutions at Nedap, you bring these conversations together. You explore how a retailer operates, challenge existing assumptions, and identify where better inventory visibility can improve performance. You have the space to develop your account strategy and take responsibility for progress. From the first conversation to a rollout decision, you help customers understand what needs to change, what an investment could deliver, and which steps are needed. You connect the interests of retail, operations, logistics, IT, and finance to an investment they can support together.
