At Matthijssen, we're looking for someone who wants to build a career—not just collect a paycheck.
Experience is great, but it isn't everything. We'd rather hire someone with determination, resilience, and an incredible work ethic than someone with years of experience but no hunger to improve.

- Want to be coached and are eager to improve every day
- Are disciplined enough to do the extra work others avoid

A Note About Success
Sales isn't easy.
Some days you'll hear "no" more than you'd like. You'll face rejection, obstacles, and challenging conversations. That's part of the job.
The people who succeed here aren't necessarily the smartest or the most experienced—they're the ones who keep showing up, keep learning, and keep improving.
If you're looking for an easy job, this probably isn't it.
If you're looking for a career where your effort determines your success, we'd love to hear from you.
