Job description

Cryoport Systems is a comprehensive supply chain partner for the life sciences industry, delivering specialized solutions to meet the challenges of the biopharmaceutical, cell and gene therapy, reproductive medicine, and animal health markets. Our offerings span logistics, BioServices and biostorage, cryopreservation, and consulting, ensuring the highest standards of quality and reliability for sensitive materials. With our expansive platform of management solutions and decades of temperature-controlled supply chain expertise, Cryoport Systems helps Enable the Outcome™ by supporting certainty and precision in the supply chain, whether advancing groundbreaking therapies, supporting families on their reproductive journeys, or enhancing animal health programs.

Are you hands-on, detail-oriented, and looking to grow in a fast-paced logistics environment? We’re hiring a Logistic Center Technician to support our operations in Hoofddorp. You’ll play a key role in ensuring the smooth handling of temperature-controlled shippers and maintaining high standards in warehouse processes.

This is a shift-based role, with two fixed options:

• Early shift: 06:00–15:00
• Day shift: 08:00–17:00

Each shift includes a 1-hour break.

Your daily duties

• Receive, inspect, clean, and test temperature-controlled shippers.
• Process shipments using Cryoportal 2.0 in line with SOPs and work instructions.
• Maintain inventory accuracy through cycle counts and proper documentation.
• Operate mechanical equipment (e.g., forklift, pallet jack) safely and efficiently.
• Ensure compliance with health, safety, and environmental regulations.
• Collaborate with internal teams and external stakeholders to support logistics operations.
• Participate in audits and facility presentations when needed.

If you hold a valid Class B driver’s license and are comfortable driving, you may occasionally support short delivery routes (less than a day) as a back-up driver—only if you’re in agreement.

What You Bring

• HAVO or VWO level education.
• Physical ability to lift up to 25 kg and perform frequent physical tasks.
• Strong organizational and communication skills.
• Proficiency in English and basic computer tools (Chrome/Edge, Microsoft Office).
• Experience in warehouse operations (pick/pack, inventory control) is a plus.
• Familiarity with cGMP, GDP, Lean Six Sigma, or Kanban is an advantage.

Join a team that values integrity, collaboration, and continuous improvement. If you’re ready to make an impact in a growing logistics environment, we’d love to hear from you!
