Vacatures in Scheendijk

The commodity world is complex—it’s fast-moving but traditional. These everyday products, from your morning coffee to the petrol in your car, play a critical role in the global economy and in our daily lives. Vesper is disrupting the commodity game. We're the fastest-growing commodity intelligence platform, trusted by giants like Nestlé, Unilever, and Danone. We combine cutting-edge AI with real-world data to give our customers the insights they need to win in a volatile market.

As our Fruits Market Insights Analyst, your job is to make sense of what’s happening in fruit markets, both fresh fruit and processed fruit products, and turn it into insights our customers can actually use. Prices, harvests, and trade flows are the backbone of the job, but the mood of the market matters just as much. You’ll help procurement teams answer the questions that keep them up at night, like "why is banana supply getting tight?" or "what’s pushing citrus prices around this quarter?".

You’ll work closely with the Product team and other market analysts, tracking down data we don’t have yet, growing our coverage of fruit markets, and making sure our reports and tools give people what they need to make good sourcing and pricing calls.

We’re looking for someone who genuinely likes getting into the data, is curious about how fruit markets actually work, can turn what they find into insights that are easy to act on, and works well with people across the business.

If you like moving fast, enjoy learning as markets shift under your feet, get energy from having real ownership, and don’t mind decisions being made in minutes rather than weeks, this role might be for you!
