Warehouse Manager (m/f/d)

Job description

Your responsibilities We are looking for a hands-on Warehouse Manager (m/f/d) to lead daily operations and help build what those operations look like at 2–3× today's volume. You will report to the European Team Lead Outbound. You own end-to-end warehouse operations: goods receipt, putaway, picking, packing, palletising, shipping, and truck loading — every order, every day. You lead, plan, and develop a team of 7–8 warehouse staff: shift scheduling, absence management, onboarding, coaching, and building a resilient substitution structure. You track and improve operational KPIs: OTIF, picking productivity, order accuracy, inventory accuracy, damage rate, and fleet utilisation — with weekly reporting to the European Team Lead Outbound. You manage inventory: cycle counts, weekly stock reconciliation, discrepancy investigation, and coordination with purchasing and supply chain. You coordinate outbound: quality-check orders before dispatch, manage CMR and delivery documentation, and work with carriers and drivers to secure on-time, in-full deliveries for key accounts. You write and enforce SOPs, work within the live ERP and WMS systems, and actively contribute to D2C scalability on site. You keep the site safe and compliant: PPE standards, forklift/pedestrian separation, Belgian labour and fire safety law. Your profile Several years of hands-on experience leading warehouse or logistics operations — FMCG, food, or pet food background strongly preferred. Solid end-to-end warehouse process knowledge: inbound, intralogistics, outbound, and stock counting. Experience working with WMS and ERP systems; prior involvement in a system rollout is a plus. Confident with transport processes: CMR documentation, tour planning, and carrier coordination. Familiarity with EU feed hygiene compliance (Reg. EC 183/2005) and HACCP-equivalent frameworks is an asset; support is available internally. Structured, performance-driven, and hands-on — you lead from the floor and hold yourself to KPIs. Clear communicator under pressure; experienced in driving change in established teams. Day shift as standard; shift model applies during seasonal peaks. French fluent; good command of English; German a plus. What we offer A real operational mandate — you run the site, with full accountability and short lines to leadership. A growth moment: 2–3× volume in two years means you will build, not just maintain. A friendly, international team. Flat hierarchies, an open culture, and flexible working arrangements. Interested ? We look forward to receiving your application — including your CV, your earliest possible start date, and your salary expectations. Tell us briefly about a warehouse challenge you tackled: what was broken, what you did, and how you measured success.
