Your FunctionReady to turn a complex supply chain transformation into a success?
At Van de Velde, we're preparing our operations for future growth. As part of this journey, we are looking for an experienced Project Manager Operations to lead large-scale transformation projects within our supply chain and distribution environment.
Your initial focus will be a strategic, multi-year program linked to the future development of our distribution center in Wichelen. You'll bring structure to complexity, align stakeholders across the business and ensure projects are delivered on time, within scope and with lasting impact.
This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys driving change from strategy through to implementation.
Your role
As Project Manager Operations, you take end-to-end ownership of complex cross-functional projects. You translate business needs into clear project plans, coordinate stakeholders across Operations, Supply Chain and IT, and ensure successful delivery from start to finish.
You create structure, manage risks, monitor progress and keep teams aligned towards shared objectives. While you don't need to be the technical expert, you understand logistics processes and systems well enough to challenge, facilitate and support decision-making.
