ANDREEA BUDAU
SALES DIRECTOR ROMANIA
"At JDE, we know that, to grow our business, we need to grow our associates through learning, coaching and critical experiences. Everyone’s coffee experience is unique and mine started in Marketing, with the great opportunity of contributing to our brands’ strategy building.
I continued my journey in Sales, as Shopper Marketing Manager, where I was able to translate Marketing principles into actionable strategies at point of sale and felt the direct impact of my decisions on day-to-day business.
I have been recently appointed as Sales Director of JDE Romania, indeed as a proof of JDE’s strong commitment of developing and promoting talents within our teams. "
BOGDAN CRISTEA
FEC MANAGER ROMANIA
"There is a saying that in life you can’t pick your family and your neighbors. For me that’s partially true, because you get to choose your job, and working at JDE is just like being part of a wonderful place to be, to grow and to build connections, something like a family.

I started working at JDE as a Finance Excellence Center Manager and I oversee stuff like IFRS & Statutory reporting. Today I am really impressed by the kindness of all the people that I have found here and their willingness to help. If you don’t believe me, join us and try it yourself!"
CATALINA ISTRATE
FIELD SALES MANAGER SOUTH-EAST ROMANIA
"Years ago, I entered the world of coffee, and since then, every single day is about coffee: coffee I drink, coffee I plan to sell to my customers, coffee I make sure is available on each shelf. And the most important is that best taste of coffee comes from Sales department, where I’ve started my career. I love to work with Sales people: they are the definition of determination and energy; the definition of “Of course, I can do this!
Let me tell you something: you should join us and you’ll experience the JDE world through the coffee you’ll taste, the people you’ll meet, the learnings you’ll take."
DUMITRU CRISTEA
TRADE PROMOTION SPECIALIST
"My coffee journey with JDE started back in 2015, holding multiple roles (currently on my 4th), having the chance to explore Supply Chain & Sales departments. I have always been a status quo challenger and a promoter of “continuous improvement as an attitude”, which brought me constant learning opportunities and many satisfactions through the years.
If you want to boost your career, while having hands-on experience and support from colleagues & mentors, JDE is the right place to be. It will be the place to learn, grow and discover your strengths! "
