NextChapter is a leading commerce platform. We work for (international) companies for whom e-commerce is core business.

The power of NextChapter eCommerce is: multichannel or multivendor selling, from one central platform. NextChapter eCommerce is known as very innovative, progressive, high-quality and flexible. Some of the clients we work for are SPORT2000, KPN, Euretco, KlusWijs, BLOND Amsterdam, DIDI and Leclerc Baby.

The NextChapter platform was built with our own with our team of 30+ e-commerce professionals (programmers, designers, project managers, marketers, etc.) and now we are on the verge of breaking through, first nationally and then internationally. In order to realize our ambitions, a six-figure investment was recently raised, which means that we are looking for talent. Our office was completely renovated last year and has a great view from the 7th floor. We work hard but also like to laugh, play a game of shuffleboard and have a nice lunch together. Your new colleagues are passionate e-commerce professionals and there is room for your ideas at NextChapter.
