You play a key role in strengthening the Operational Excellence culture within DSV Contract Logistics Netherlands.

·    implementing and maintaining operational standards within Contract Logistics, and encouraging knowledge sharing and best practices between sites;
·    demonstrably improving performance through Lean Six Sigma by delivering Yellow Belt training, coaching Green Belts and executing complex Green/Black Belt projects.

“As Senior Operational Excellence Manager, you connect strategy and operations and build a culture of continuous improvement within our Contract Logistics organisation every single day,”

 

says Leon Borsten, Senior Manager Operations Excellence.

 


In the Netherlands, we operate from over 40 branches, with more than 5,000 colleagues. Together we rise to the challenge of a rapidly changing environment. We make quick decisions at every level and combine ambition and teamwork. This is how we move forward and make a difference together.

 

You bring

·    at least a bachelor’s degree (HBO level), preferably in logistics or business administration;
·    3–5 years of experience in Continuous Improvement, Operational Excellence or Lean Six Sigma;
·    affinity with Lean Six Sigma (Green Belt preferred; Black Belt experience is a strong plus);
·    confidence in training groups and delivering presentations and experience in managing and guiding multiple projects simultaneously;
·    strong analytical skills, persuasive communication and the ability to maintain oversight, also creativity in finding solutions, combined with disciplined planning;
