Move forward as Supervisor Logistics Engineering at DSV in Venlo
Do you have a wealth of experience in logistics engineering? Are you the leader who makes a difference? And does your heart beat faster for everything related to logistics, automation, and engineering? Then we are looking for you!

You get it done
As a supervisor of logistics engineering, you lead a team of about 10 logistics process engineers, spread across 7 DSV locations in the South-East Netherlands region. Your team operates largely autonomously. Using the scrum method, they align their projects, tasks, and progress with the site teams every 2 weeks. As a supervisor, working closely with your two colleagues supervising our WMS team, you set the big picture. You’re on it.

How do you do this? Your mission as a supervisor of logistics engineering is to ensure that your team continues to grow and develop, covering a wide range of specialties in the South-East Netherlands region. In collaboration with national and international engineering colleagues, project management, QHSE, and DSV Sigma. From Maastricht to Venlo, you and your team are responsible for more than 200,000m2 of warehouse space. You achieve this by:

• coaching your team, conducting one-on-one meetings, performance reviews, and progress reviews. Additionally, you are responsible for managing sick leave and hiring and onboarding new colleagues;
• serving as a substantive sparring partner for your team members;
• optimizing processes, from large-scale automations to old-school conventional warehouse solutions;
• aligning projects and priorities in consultation with our account managers and operational managers;
• building a strong internal network with colleagues in automation, IT, and HR, for example.

Your team stands out at DSV because it has such a wonderful mix of knowledge and experience! It includes not only colleagues with a background in IT or engineering but also colleagues with experience in logistics.

We are DSV, we grow
DSV is a global provider of transport and logistics services. With offices in more than 80 countries and a growing network of partners, there is no place in the world we cannot reach via transport by air, sea, rail, courier or road or where we can offer storage in warehouses.

Leading a logistics revolution, combined with coaching a team. The best of both worlds, in my opinion, says Arjan Schoonbeek, Manager Business Support.

In the Netherlands, we operate from over 25 branches, with more than 3,000 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

• HBO/WO level of education, preferably in logistics;
• about 5 years of experience in logistics engineering, process engineering, or supply chain engineering;
• leadership experience, preferably supplemented with logistics automation projects;
• a structured and hands-on way of working. You are communicatively strong, both in Dutch and English.

It all counts for this vacancy of supervisor logistics engineering in Venlo. Furthermore, it is of course important that you feel at home with us. That will certainly be possible if you like to keep going, have guts and want to grow with DSV.
