Job Description

For our Nijmegen location, we are looking for a Logistics Manager.

Alewijnse works on technical projects at various locations in the Netherlands and abroad. To properly support these projects, we want to further professionalise our logistics organisation in Nijmegen.

  • Leading the logistics team and coaching employees in their daily activities and professional development.

  • Ensuring that your team has the right resources, knowledge and support to perform their work effectively.

  • Designing, optimising and implementing logistics processes and procedures.

  • Developing a clear logistics vision and translating it into concrete objectives and improvement initiatives.

  • Managing the implementation and use of supporting systems, such as a Warehouse Management System (WMS) and barcode scanners.

  • Developing and optimising item management, inventory and distribution models.

  • Analysing logistics performance and processes, driving improvements in efficiency, reliability and cost control.

What do we offer?

  • A gross monthly salary between €5,000 and €6,500 (based on full-time employment).

  • A responsible and varied management position.

  • The opportunity to work on high-quality projects in the yacht building and offshore industries.

  • Plenty of room for your own initiative and the opportunity to make a real impact.

  • Opportunities for personal and professional development.

  • A company phone and laptop.

  • An annual profit-sharing scheme.

You have a solid understanding of logistics management and processes and know how to successfully implement change within an organisation. You are able to think both strategically and operationally.
