Production Team Leader

Production Team Leader in Zoetermeer

What are you going to do?

Are you a team leader who enjoys working hands-on and is confident? Do you enjoy managing a team, improving processes, and ensuring that thousands of products leave the warehouse on time? Then this position is for you.

As Production Team Leader, you lead a team of 8 to 10 warehouse employees on a daily basis. You ensure that operations run smoothly, monitor quality, and maintain an overview of the entire production line. You are visibly present on the shop floor, direct colleagues where necessary, and pitch in yourself during busy periods.

You monitor the schedule, resolve bottlenecks before they become problems, and ensure that all packages are processed and shipped on time. Additionally, you actively contribute ideas for improvements within the logistics process.

About the employer

Our client is a fast-growing e-commerce organization in Zoetermeer that processes thousands of orders daily for customers in the Netherlands and Belgium. The company sells a wide range of products through various online sales channels. The selection changes regularly, with media such as CDs and DVDs forming an important part of the assortment.

All logistical processes are managed in-house from the modern warehouse. This includes receiving goods, inventory management, order processing, packing, and shipping thousands of packages per day. Due to the high turnover rate of the products, an efficient logistics process is of great importance. A limited inventory is deliberately maintained, ensuring that products are processed quickly and shipped immediately.

An informal and no-nonsense working atmosphere prevails within the organization. Lines of communication are short, decisions are made quickly, and employees are given a great deal of responsibility. Initiative is appreciated, and there is ample room to contribute ideas for improvements within the logistics processes. Together with a close-knit team, you work every day on a smooth-running operation and an optimal customer experience.
