Account Manager

CARU Containers is the world’s largest independent container supplier. With eight offices across four continents and a team of just seventy enthusiastic colleagues, we sell more than 120.000 shipping containers annually.

The world is constantly changing, and this is reflected in the container market. This makes our business dynamic, international, and exciting! We love the container: a product without pretensions that simply does what it is supposed to do and does it exceptionally well. It is the simplicity that makes the possibilities endless. We truly believe that the container is the invention of the 20th century.

As a family-owned company with roots in Rotterdam, we are determined to make a positive impact.
