YOUR ROLE

For our warehouse location in Nieuwegein, we are looking for a Warehouse Supervisor. In this managerial role, you will be responsible for the logistics process of two clients. With the support of three Assistant Supervisors, you will manage a team of 35 employees and ensure that safety standards, quality, and productivity are met. You play a crucial role in successfully executing planned orders and achieving the required results, which directly contributes to the satisfaction of our customers!

WHAT WILL YOU DO?

As a Warehouse Supervisor, you plan, coordinate, and control the warehouse activities needed for processing order flows. You receive a monthly order forecast from the clients, on which you plan the resources. Additionally, you manage KPIs such as quality, productivity, and on-time outbound processing. You monitor the results, identify deviations, and investigate them to provide substantiation and solutions.

The team you lead consists of experienced employees and new colleagues. This creates a mix of people who provide stability and show ambition, bringing both opportunities and challenges, such as the potential for development and the prevention of absenteeism. Together with your manager, the Contract Manager, you work to align the operation as closely as possible with the client and vice versa. You keep each other informed of what is happening in the operation and with the clients, to bring the right focus and be successful in the service.

You are also responsible for:

• Coordinating with the Operations Managers and employment agencies for scaling up or down personnel.
• Working according to LEAN principles, the 5S concept, and actively seeking process improvements through Kaizens.
• Performing HR-related management tasks such as sickness prevention and absenteeism and performance reviews.
• Keeping administrative tasks such as reports, KPIs, skill matrix up to date and reporting them to the Contract Manager.
• Identifying potential within the team and providing training, coaching, and development for promotion within CEVA Logistics.

The clients under your responsibility are industrial clients for whom we deliver parts worldwide. Your working hours are from Monday to Friday from 08:00 to 17:00.

WHAT ARE WE LOOKING FOR?

We are looking for a leader who can act decisively and remain steadfast in new, unexpected, or difficult situations. You are focused on achieving results and know that a sense of unity in the team is important for this. By listening to the needs of others, you ensure stable mutual relationships. You also question habits and customs to create a culture where striving for improvement and efficiency becomes natural.

Additionally, we are looking for the following knowledge and experience:

• At least 5 years of leadership experience in a logistics environment.
• Fluent command of the English language, both spoken and written.
• Knowledge of warehousing and automated information systems.
• Knowledge of procedures and processes within a warehouse.

WHERE WILL YOU WORK?
