• being ultimately responsible for setting up project management methodology and implementing and securing this within the Dutch organization;
• translating business requirements into Management Dashboards, Power Apps, and other reporting tools;
• taking the lead on complex and large-scale projects when your knowledge and expertise are required;
• defining migration strategies and planning for WMS and non-WMS applications, while ensuring continuity and functional optimization of centrally managed applications such as Protime, Topdesk, Ortec, Planon, Bizzmine, and more.
