Head of Digital

Triple Solar is a fast growing manufacturing company that is transforming into a data-driven, digitally supported organization. In the traditional installation sector, our ambition is not only to introduce an innovative product to accelerate the energy transition (our PVT heat pump system) but also to provide maximum digital support for the way we produce and install.

As Head of Digital, your role in driving this strategy is crucial: you will design the digital “best practice” to operate within our organisation as well as within our ecosystem of installation partners, eventually fully integrated with our end user facing app. You will build the framework to connect every new country—starting with Germany (HQ Cologne)—according to a fixed global standard.

You are the builder who first maximizes and drives automation regarding the foundational (ERP/CRM) processes and then uses data automation and AI applications to help both our own organization and our installation partners worldwide excel.

Your Responsibilities

1. Strategic Blueprint & Scalability

• Develop a scalable digital strategy that serves as a “Plug & Play” model for international expansion.
• Establish a multi-year roadmap focused on standardization: ensuring we operate the “Triple Solar way” everywhere.
• Integrate our German GmbH (Cologne) digitally and ensure seamless collaboration on process level between the central team in Amsterdam and the German team in Cologne.

2. Tactical Foundation: ERP & CRM Integration

• Own our Triple Solar system landscape, where AFAS (ERP) acts as the operational brain and HubSpot (CRM) as the commercial engine, maximally automated.
• Maximize the effectiveness of this backend by establishing a “Single Source of Truth,” real-time data exchange between entities, and fully automated workflows.
• Build dashboards that support teams in active decision-making to effectively lead the company globally.

3. Innovation: AI & Partner Support

• Once the foundation is solid, implement AI solutions such as knowledge databases that provide maximum support for our internal organization, end customers, and installation partners to answer their questions and support their operations.
• Build and implement a foundational and easy-to-use partner platform for effective and transparent management of the Triple Solar installation partner ecosystem.

4. Operational IT Governance & Security

• Ensure a secure IT environment and define the vision for cybersecurity and international data protection (GDPR).
• Take responsibility for the organization’s IT needs, manage an external IT service provider for daily support, and step-by-step build your own international team.

Wat bieden wij jou?

• A key role with a direct mandate to shape the global digital landscape of a frontrunner in the energy transition.
• The opportunity to build an international team and a modern infrastructure from Amsterdam.
• An informal, ambitious culture with short lines of communication to the Management Team.
