Strategic Account Manager - Eurofiber

Eurofiber

Eurofiber is a fast-growing telecom player. We connect companies, governments, cities and economies with each other.

We achieve this with the help of our own open fiber-optic network, IP services and data centres, with which we offer our clients future-proof cloud and connectivity solutions.

We have been at the forefront of innovation, helping our customers fully exploit the potential of digitisation since 2000.

Our more than 500 employees are all experts in their respective fields. With this relatively small but rapidly growing team, we develop and operate a digital infrastructure that plays a vital role in our economy and society.

Eurofiber has a fiber-optic network of 33,000 kilometres in the Benelux and northern France, and an additional 40 kilometres are added each week. We have 8 data centres of our own and offer solutions for fully flexible interaction between more than 70 data centres.

In this manner, we are building the ‘lifeline for the digital society’ and contributing to the future of our society.
