YOUR ROLE 
As a Workforce Planner, your primary responsibility is to ensure that the right number of flexible workers with the required skills are available on time to support our logistical operations. You'll collaborate with colleagues to create and optimize employee schedules, working closely with operational departments and our flexible staffing partners. 

What does this role mean? The employee schedule is based on forecasts provided by our partners. For context, during peak periods, around 4,000 temporary workers are employed in our warehouse in Tilburg. You'll inform and advise various stakeholders, primarily via email and phone, requiring strong English skills. Your ability to analyze data, combined with proficiency in Excel and other systems, supports your recommendations and responses. Precision and effective prioritization are essential to providing stakeholders with accurate and timely information. You'll be part of a team of seven Workforce Planners, a diverse and dedicated group where your input is valued, and together, you achieve goals. You will report to the Team Lead Workforce Planning and work from our warehouse (de Bijenkorf) in Tilburg. 

Working hours are primarily between 06:30 and 19:00, every day of the week, including weekends. Of course, you won't be working these hours consecutively. As a team, you'll create a quarterly schedule where you can indicate your preferences, which will be accommodated as much as possible. 

WHAT WILL YOU DO? 

• Fulfill the flexible workforce needs for logistical operations based on forecasts; 

• Develop a 4–8 week workforce plan in consultation with operations; 

• Increase the flexibility of the workforce pool trough methods such as job rotation;
