How do you make our customers happy?

Bol operates a vast logistics network with dedicated warehouses and logistics partners to meet customer expectations. In this role, you coordinate the project to open and run our new warehouse, ensuring it meets high standards of safety, quality, and efficiency. You help resolve operational challenges during the launch and daily operations that directly impact the experience of millions of bol customers. By collaborating with logistics partners and internal teams, you ensure reliable delivery from this new location.

The biggest challenge

Opening and running a new warehouse requires balancing tight timelines, diverse stakeholders, and operational goals. You guide the transition from the initial launch phase to stable daily operations by keeping all project milestones on track. This role does not involve direct people management, meaning you deliver results through structured coordination and collaboration. You align logistics partners and internal specialist teams around operational readiness and performance targets. The challenge lies in keeping the launch moving forward and managing expectations without hierarchical authority.
