• Support and execute strategic transport initiatives, including the evaluation and implementation of alternative transport solutions and participation in transport tenders.

What We’re Looking For

• Relevant experience within transport management, freight, logistics, supply chain management, or a comparable operational environment
• Strong practical experience with transport operations and the management of internal transport processes
• Experience gained in an internal logistics, supply chain, or transport function is particularly relevant
• The ability to monitor performance, identify improvement opportunities, and translate them into concrete actions
• Strong communication and stakeholder-management skills in an international environment
• A proactive and solution-oriented mindset, with the ability to take ownership and work independently
