Omschrijving

We need to transfer our operational location from The Hague to Breda in mid-February.

Due to limited internal capacity, we require a professional who can manage this relocation and ensure that processes at the new site are implemented in a stable and efficient manner.
In addition, volumes are expected to peak in the coming period due to new clients, which means we need extra capacity to handle this effectively.

Furthermore, our on-site team is growing, and we need a professional who can establish a sustainable foundation for this growth by creating clear alignment, implementing structured routines, and ensuring proper documentation.
This operational manager will primarily focus on managing the relocation to the new site and ensuring that processes are implemented in the most effective way. This is a temporary, project-based assignment.

In addition, the operational manager will support and guide the daily operational processes to maintain stability during this transition.

The role does not cover the entire scope of tasks of an internal employee but is specifically aimed at relocation management, process implementation, and temporary operational support.
