Your responsibilities
We are looking for a hands-on Warehouse Manager (m/f/d) to lead daily operations and help build what those operations look like at 2–3× today's volume. You will report to the European Team Lead Outbound.
- You own end-to-end warehouse operations: goods receipt, putaway, picking, packing, palletising, shipping, and truck loading — every order, every day.
- You lead, plan, and develop a team of 7–8 warehouse staff: shift scheduling, absence management, onboarding, coaching, and building a resilient substitution structure.
- You track and improve operational KPIs: OTIF, picking productivity, order accuracy, inventory accuracy, damage rate, and fleet utilisation — with weekly reporting to the European Team Lead Outbound.
- You manage inventory: cycle counts, weekly stock reconciliation, discrepancy investigation, and coordination with purchasing and supply chain.
- You coordinate outbound: quality-check orders before dispatch, manage CMR and delivery documentation, and work with carriers and drivers to secure on-time, in-full deliveries for key accounts.
- You write and enforce SOPs, work within the live ERP and WMS systems, and actively contribute to D2C scalability on site.
- You keep the site safe and compliant: PPE standards, forklift/pedestrian separation, Belgian labour and fire safety law.
Your profile
- Several years of hands-on experience leading warehouse or logistics operations — FMCG, food, or pet food background strongly preferred.
- Solid end-to-end warehouse process knowledge: inbound, intralogistics, outbound, and stock counting.
- Experience working with WMS and ERP systems; prior involvement in a system rollout is a plus.
- Confident with transport processes: CMR documentation, tour planning, and carrier coordination.
- Familiarity with EU feed hygiene compliance (Reg. EC 183/2005) and HACCP-equivalent frameworks is an asset; support is available internally.
- Structured, performance-driven, and hands-on — you lead from the floor and hold yourself to KPIs.
- Clear communicator under pressure; experienced in driving change in established teams.
- Day shift as standard; shift model applies during seasonal peaks.
- French fluent; good command of English; German a plus.
What we offer
- A real operational mandate — you run the site, with full accountability and short lines to leadership.
- A growth moment: 2–3× volume in two years means you will build, not just maintain.
- A friendly, international team.
- Flat hierarchies, an open culture, and flexible working arrangements.
