About You

We're looking for someone who enjoys leading people, solving problems and making things work better. Someone who can balance the needs of the team with the day-to-day demands of a busy operation.

Here's what will help you succeed:

Experience leading teams in fulfilment, warehousing, logistics or production.

A track record of supporting and coaching Team Leads or supervisors to help their teams succeed.

Ability to manage daily performance across safety, quality, service and cost.

Experience planning staffing needs and managing busy periods, including working with temporary or flexible teams.

Confidence managing budgets and labour costs, with a practical approach to balancing capacity and spend.

Experience improving operational processes and finding effective solutions to everyday challenges.

A strong commitment to Health & Safety, with a collaborative approach to involving colleagues in improvements.

Ability to work well with different departments and external partners, sharing ideas and operational needs clearly.

A hands-on, supportive leadership style, combined with the ability to plan ahead and prepare operations for growth.

Fluency in both Dutch and English is essential. While both languages are used at Greetz, Dutch is the main language spoken in our day-to-day warehouse and fulfilment operations. You'll need to feel confident communicating in Dutch with colleagues and teams, while also being comfortable working in English with other departments and stakeholders.

This role is based primarily at our fulfilment facility in Almere, where you'll work closely with the teams making the magic happen every day.
