Join a rapidly growing logistics company!

Weerts Supply Chain is continuing to expand in Belgium (and soon abroad) and is strengthening its teams to support the roll-out of new logistics projects across its various sites. In this context, we are looking for a Project Manager to lead and implement operational projects at the heart of our business.

You will work in a dynamic, multi-site environment on a variety of projects, such as optimising operations, opening new sites, onboarding new clients, and rolling out logistics systems and technological initiatives.

This role is suited to a pragmatic, hands‑on and results‑oriented individual, capable of turning projects into concrete operational solutions. The aim? To make an impact on operations and see the results of your projects directly on the ground!

Working closely with operational teams, site managers and various internal and external partners, you will play a key role in improving operational performance and rolling out strategic projects to drive the growth of Weerts Supply Chain.

Key responsibilities

• Manage end-to-end logistics projects using a simple and pragmatic project management methodology (scheduling, prioritisation, task tracking, risk management).
• Oversee the operational implementation of logistics projects such as:
  • Warehouse reorganisation or optimisation
  • Improvement of operational processes
  • Deployment and optimisation of WMS systems
  • Support for operational change
  • Training and operational roll-out
  • Opening of new sites
  • Onboarding of new clients
  • Technology initiatives
• Coordinate the various project stakeholders (operations, IT, partners, service providers and clients) to ensure alignment and project progress.
• Work closely with operational teams on the ground (warehouses, transport, partners) and actively contribute to implementation where necessary.
• Monitor project progress using simple tracking tools and performance indicators to ensure deadlines and targets are met.
• Proactively identify potential risks or issues and implement corrective actions where necessary.
• Ensure clear and structured communication with operational teams and management.
• Analyse logistics flows and lead process improvement initiatives in collaboration with teams on the ground.
• Participate in the design of new operational processes as part of projects, based on needs, data, and on‑site constraints.
• Contribute to the development of operational layouts by analyzing, in particular, volumes, flows, forecasts, and capacity requirements.
• Ensure compliance with operational standards regarding safety, quality and regulatory compliance.
• Produce clear and practical documentation to facilitate the adoption and sustainability of the solutions implemented.

Skills and experience

• At least 5 years’ experience in a logistics or transport environment.
• Practical experience in the operational implementation of projects such as:
  • Warehouse reorganisation
  • Process improvement or development
  • Deployment of logistics systems (WMS or similar tools)
  • Change management initiatives
  • Operational roll‑out or training
  • Opening of new sites
  • Onboarding of new clients
  • Technology or digital projects
• Fluency in French and/or Dutch, and the ability to work in business English.
• Flexibility and mobility in a multi‑site environment, with regular travel to support projects as close as possible to operations.
• Ability to structure and organise projects by applying project management methods.
• Good command of the operational and IT tools used in logistics environments.
• Analytical skills based on data, facts and performance indicators.
• Experience with logistics systems (WMS, supply chain ERP or operational digital solutions) is a significant advantage.
• Pragmatic, reliable and results‑oriented.
• Strong operational awareness and a desire to be at the heart of operations.
• Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously in a dynamic environment.
• Proactive and hands‑on approach: you play an active role in driving projects forward.
• Analytical mind and ability to solve problems in a practical and effective manner.
• Clear and structured communication with operational teams and management.
• Curiosity and a desire to continuously improve logistics processes.

What you will develop

• Genuine autonomy: you will manage specific projects from start to finish, rather than just part of the process.
• Diverse contexts: you will work in a multi‑site, multi‑stakeholder environment, handling a variety of projects (WMS, site openings, process optimisation, etc.).
• Progression to a senior role: a structured career path with a gradual increase in complexity and responsibilities.
• Working closely with Senior Project Managers and the PM Lead Manager.
• Measurable impact on the ground : your actions have a direct effect on site operations and performance.

This role is not:

• A purely theoretical project management role or one based solely on coordinating meetings.
• A role focused on producing presentations or reports.
