In the Netherlands, we operate from over 40 branches, with more than 5,000 colleagues. Together we rise to the challenge of a rapidly changing environment. We make quick decisions at every level and combine ambition and teamwork. This is how we move forward and make a difference together.

You bring

• experience as a Business Analyst or in a similar analytical role, preferably within the transport or logistics sector;
• experience analysing data and developing management reports, preferably using Power BI and Excel;
