(including the goods that come from Netherlands) - Recruitment of new staff (warehouse personel, technical service, project managers, site managers) and monitoring of the training programs. - Holding working meetings with department heads (inbound, outbound, inside sales, service and maintenance) - Monthly reporting to management in the Netherlands (headquarters in Utrecht) I could always submit an operational cost that was 10% lower than budget. I stayed within the margins concerning FTE and regularly came with cost-cutting ideas - Preparation and maintenance of the ISO and VCA P en OHSAS certification -Keeping toolboxes: guarantee and ensure that everyone attending these toolboxes and understood the contents hereof. -The organization and follow-up of periodic inventory counts - Watching over safe work of employees:Preventing accidents by monitoring, discussing near misses, giving toolboxes and creating a safe working environment. this by regulating the use of PPE, the use of safe and standardized tools and make safe work a state of mind. - Change management: At the request of the Management Board our technical department is centralized in Rotterdam. Only lifting and hoisting remained in Belgium. After a little over a year, they changed opinion and the regions received their service and maintenance back . This meant adjustments to infrastructure and manpower. also these services were not included in the operational plan and not included in the budget. People who were made redundant in the previous year, had to be found suddenly again. - Best practices: many of my procedures and practices were adopted by other regions within the company.
