Job description

Teelor Rotterdam, South Holland, Netherlands

Product Owner

We are looking for a Product Owner for our client, a logistics service provider with multiple locations across Europe. You will be responsible for the core platform that connects everything: our external customers on the front-end and all internal stakeholders and business units on the back-end. This platform is the beating heart of the organization – every operational, financial, and HR process runs through it.

Why this opportunity?

• Working in an industry that can be truly called dynamic
• Direct impact at the core of the company’s operations
• A visible, business-critical role with a lot of ownership and variety
• No-nonsense work culture where results matter and you can truly be yourself
• A company where you, as soon as you step into the office, feel welcomed

What can you expect from this role?

• Own and manage the product backlog --- ensuring IT developments align with business needs.
• Collaborate with stakeholders across departments --- to gather requirements and define priorities.
• Drive integrations --- when new companies are acquired and added to the platform.
• Deliver continuous improvements --- to support operational excellence and customer experience.
• Play a key role --- in further professionalizing and scaling the IT department.

You will be working closely with the Dev team, Product Manager and CIO. Dutch is not mandatory, but a good command in English (both verbal and written) is important. Ideally you already have experience as a Product Owner, but that is not a must. As long as you have experience in either business analysis, business process management and/or project management.

It is important that you have some domain experience within the logistics industry or a related field. If not, a strong motivation to quickly immerse yourself in the sector will be essential.

I can imagine you have more questions regarding the role and company. So don't hesitate to apply or contact me via [e-mail] or call 088 236 00 00. More than happy to tell you all about this opportunity.
