Logistics Team Leader

About the job

Are you ready for the next step in logistics, and do you get energy from using employees' strengths, improving processes and being visible on the shop floor? For a family-run organisation we are looking for a Logistics Team Leader who dares to take ownership and wants to take on tasks in the warehouse. In this role you lead a team of 15 employees, rising to 25 in the high season. You make sure employees get the right guidance, divide the work, spot bottlenecks and help the team develop further. There is plenty of room to shape the role your own way, think along on improvements and actively contribute to the further roll-out of Lean and 5S. You report to the Warehouse Manager and work closely with transport planning. The salary is between €3,000 and €3,500 gross per month, with 25 holiday days and a direct contract with the client.

• Leading, guiding and motivating employees on the shop floor

• Dividing tasks and monitoring daily progress

• Coaching and supporting employees and taking them along in changes

• Handling recruitment and selection, and performance and absence reviews

• Actively contributing to the further implementation of Lean and 5S

• Prioritising orders administratively, making them urgent and releasing them in the WMS
