Jobs at HADDAD BRANDS EUROPE (Now Hiring) — 30 open — Page 2

Operational for 9 years, the company has experienced remarkable growth and now counts over 500 employees throughout Europe.

We distribute our products both through wholesale, working with major multi-brand and specialized retailers, and through retail, via our corners in leading department stores.
