With over 95,000 items from more than 2,000 manufacturers, we offer the largest range on the market. Our 6 warehouses in Europe, 9 locations and over 1,000 employees guarantee fast and reliable service. Our affiliation with Parts Town, the American market leader in high-tech spare parts distribution, gives us even more power. Together we ensure that everything runs smoothly - whether it's a coffee machine, refrigerator or combi-steamer.

Work location: Bergkirchen (relocating to Unterschleißheim at the end of 2027)

Job Description

We are looking for an experienced, hands‑on Project Manager / Delivery Lead to lead two consecutive, strategically important supply‑chain projects: the completion of Direct Shipment and the subsequent relocation to the new Global Fulfillment Center (GFC).

First project - Direct Shipment: Take over an ongoing Direct Shipment and Order Routing software project and lead the remaining development, integration, testing, deployment, and stabilization activities through to completion.

Subsequent project - GFC (Global Fulfillment Center) relocation: Following completion of Direct Shipment, assume responsibility for selected project‑management workstreams within the planned GFC relocation. The focus will include integrated planning, cross‑functional dependencies, operational readiness, cutover, handover, and stabilization.

The role requires someone who works closely with the teams, understands the functional and operational details, structures the work, resolves delivery obstacles, and ensures that agreed actions are completed. This is not a high‑level PMO or status‑reporting role.

• Take over Direct Shipment through a structured handover and maintain delivery continuity.
• Build a detailed understanding of the order‑routing logic, remaining scope, integrations, dependencies, risks, and decisions.
• Translate the remaining scope into clear work packages, priorities, owners, milestones, and acceptance criteria.
• Coordinate integration testing, UAT, defect resolution, cutover, go‑live readiness, and stabilization.
• Take ownership of selected GFC relocation workstreams and translate them into clear plans, milestones, owners, dependencies, and acceptance criteria.
• Coordinate supply‑chain, warehouse, IT, facilities, vendor, and operational dependencies for the assigned GFC relocation scope.
• Support GFC readiness, cutover, operational handover, ramp‑up, and stabilization activities.
• Guide business, technology, operations, and partner teams through detailed delivery topics and provide decision‑oriented stakeholder communication.
• Drive actions through to completion and ensure that progress is supported by tangible, accepted deliverables.

Qualifications

• Several years of hands‑on project or delivery leadership in complex software implementations.
• Proven experience leading custom software from requirements through testing, deployment, and go‑live.
• Strong experience with UAT, integration testing, defect management, cutover, and hypercare.
• Ability to work credibly with business owners, developers, architects, testers, and external partners at a detailed level.
• Strong supply‑chain focus, with experience in logistics, warehousing, shipment processes, order routing, or related areas.
• Experience with warehouse transitions, relocations, distribution‑center launches, or comparable operational change is highly desirable.
• Experience with ERP/WMS integrations, supply‑chain data, or Microsoft Azure‑based custom solutions is advantageous.
• Strong planning, facilitation, problem‑solving, stakeholder‑management, and decision‑preparation skills.
• A player‑coach mindset: able to provide direction, challenge assumptions constructively, and support teams in resolving issues.
• Based in Germany, fluent in professional English, and willing to travel as required.
