Job Description

Capelle aan den IJssel - 40 hours per week A new generation of music lovers is driving strong growth, and that growth is setting Bertus in motion. Several change programmes are running in parallel: an outdated system is being replaced by Dynamics as the ERP system, digital channels such as our own webshops and marketplaces are being further developed, and the operational organisation is transforming towards a data-driven, supply chain-focused way of working. Meanwhile, the international sales organisation is growing into regional hubs with local account management. You bring overview and coherence to what are still often separate projects, and you oversee the progress, scope and resources of each project. You determine methodologies and set clear targets, coach project leaders in their change assignments and work hands-on in the implementation. The role reports to the Managing Director, for whom the Senior Program & Integration Manager also acts as a strategic sounding board. Our two hundred employees, including our colleagues in the warehouse, are passionate professionals with years of knowledge of the music industry. Their expertise and support are indispensable for the success of every project. Strong stakeholder management and a sensitive, connecting personality are therefore essential qualities of the Senior Program & Integration Manager, who aligns initiatives with that expertise and so makes new ways of working land successfully. For a consultant with solid programme experience who wants to do more than just advise, this role offers room to steer the execution yourself. Once the foundation is in place, new opportunities arise: new customers, new regions, other forms of distribution and other group-wide projects. Taking on this assignment means helping to build a success story, with the prospect of great next steps. Profile and competencies Business experience with a hands-on mentality: you have experience in a similar role on the business side, for example as Senior Product Owner. You switch easily between strategy and execution, work out plans independently and aren’t afraid to dive into the details yourself. Experience with digital transformations is a big plus. Sales, distribution and supply chain management are Bertus’ core activities. That’s why we’re looking for someone with demonstrable knowledge of or experience in these disciplines. Fast learner: you have the analytical ability to fully understand new processes and systems in a very short time. Strong connector: you have the seniority and communication skills to make an impact at every level and unite people around a common goal. Experience with modern change management: you are familiar with current techniques for project control and organisational change and know how to apply them effectively. In doing so, you take the human side of change into account, now and going forward. Pioneering spirit: you have the ambition to firmly establish a new role and are ready to grow towards a group-wide role in the longer term. KPIs Responsible for delivering projects within planning, budget and the agreed scope. Quality of process and project documentation: the extent to which plans and processes are clear, workable and documented. Impact of the change assignment: the extent to which the organisation actually moves along with the strategic renewals. Adoption rate of modern tools: successful implementation of new techniques within project management. Efficiency of business processes: demonstrable improvement in the lead time or quality of the processes analysed. What do we offer you? Besides a Great Place To Work, We Offer A competitive salary!
