A logistics organization is currently scaling up significantly. To manage this rapid growth effectively, we are looking for a decisive project manager who will firmly take charge of various complex internal projects. With these projects, you will focus entirely on process-oriented management, the optimization of our internal operations, and strict capacity planning. Additionally, you are indispensable for the success of our extensive acquisition programs and tenders.
Apart from internal improvement projects, you act as the coordinating engine: you are the driving force ensuring that actions are pursued vigorously and operational bottlenecks are proactively addressed. By strongly managing both aspects, you guarantee that the organization can handle accelerated procurement processes smoothly. You will work in a support department, which focuses on our internal operations, coordinating tenders, and capacity planning.
As a project manager, you will manage internal improvements from A to Z, support the organization procedurally, and act as a steadfast enforcer when implementation threatens to stall.
What you do
- You lead various internal projects that directly contribute to optimizing internal operations and streamlining capacity planning
- You act as a coordinator and provide substantive support for large tenders and acquisition programs
- You proactively pursue actions with all involved internal and external parties, including demanders and suppliers
- You monitor progress and ensure that both internal projects and tenders remain strictly within agreed frameworks
What they ask
- Demonstrable HBO or university level with a background in Business Administration, Logistics, or Supply Chain Management (SCM)
- Significant work experience gained within large, complex organizations
- Extremely strong in stakeholder management and highly communicative and decisive
- A plus: Demonstrable experience or certification in Lean Six Sigma and/or PRINCE2
