Are you a dynamic individual with a passion for logistics and project management? Do you thrive in a rapidly changing environment where resilience and adaptability are crucial? Is continuous improvement your mantra? Then we have an exciting opportunity for you to join our team at DSV as a junior project manager freight.
You get it done
As a junior project manager freight, you'll play a crucial role in promoting operational excellence and process standardization in our operations, both in the Netherlands and Belgium. You’re on it.
You'll collaborate closely with our freight operations team, using your knowledge of logistics and project management to implement impactful changes and improvemets. You'll achieve this by:

If we can do things faster, better, or more efficiently, it's not a question of if we will do it, but when. And that is your starting signal and your time to shine.
