Our Albert Heijn Technology Supply Chain platform aims to create the best supply chain architecture and infrastructure, significantly impacting our processes and enhancing the shopping experience for millions of customers who visit our stores daily. Within this platform, multiple products drive success, each managed by a product team categorized under Replenishment, Logistics, or Transport.

You will join a team that is dedicated to empowering Albert Heijn's Supply Chain business units with robust data solutions for reporting and analytics. The team focuses on creating data marts, providing insightful data, and liberating data for enhanced decision-making.

Exciting products you'll work on include:

• KPI Services: Delivering crucial insights into Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for supply chain stakeholders, enabling efficient management of the supply chain.

Your new team and office.

Together with your team you will work on inspiring projects to accelerate our transition into a hybrid Food & Tech company. We want to leverage data and technology to future-proof food shopping and give our customers the accessibility to healthy food more easily available for everyone. At Albert Heijn, you team up with inspiring peers in the data, digital and tech domains. A community of diverse individuals who share a common goal; to create digital solutions that make (online) shopping simpler and more inspiring. Are you ready to reinvent the way millions of people buy and enjoy their food? We invest heavily in data, digital and tech. And that includes investing in your career! Our teams work in a hybrid way: both from home as well as in the office. We are located right next to the train station of Zaandam.

We think it’s important to be part of an high-belonging team; a team where you can be yourself and feel safe, accepted and appreciated. For this job we are preferably looking for someone who brings diversity in our team, in the widest possible sense. Someone who is a great addition to our team by bringing other ideas to the table. Don’t check all the boxes? Don’t worry, we probably don’t either 😉. Don’t hesitate to apply if you think you are up for the challenge, we’re happy to have a look at your resume!
