Your role
As SOM Coordinator, you are a key player within our Supply Chain & Operations team. You combine operational supervision of daily inbound and outbound flows with an active role as back-up customs declarant — a unique combination for those looking to broaden their logistics experience with customs expertise, or vice versa.
You work closely with a dedicated SOM colleague and act as her back-up during leave periods. Alongside day-to-day operations, you contribute to SOM projects: process optimisations, implementations, and continuous improvement initiatives.
What will you do?
- You supervise the operational flow within the SOM department: daily coordination, follow-up, and quality control of goods movements.
- You monitor the full inbound process — from order processing and transport coordination to final delivery at the warehouse — and proactively resolve logistical challenges.
- You ensure accurate, complete, and up-to-date administrative processing of order data in our systems (ERP, WMS, customs software).
- You act as back-up customs declarant for approximately 6 weeks per year: handling customs declarations and ensuring compliance with customs and excise procedures.
- You contribute to the development and follow-up of SOM projects.
- You maintain clear and proactive communication with suppliers, carriers, and internal colleagues across ODC.
Your profile
We are looking for a candidate with a strong combination of hands-on logistics experience and affinity with customs procedures. Ideally someone ready to step from a declarant role into a broader logistics function — or looking to enrich an operational background with customs expertise.
- At least 3 years of experience in a logistics or supply chain environment.
- Basic knowledge of customs and excise procedures; extensive knowledge or experience as a customs declarant is a clear advantage.
- Comfortable working with ERP, WMS, and/or customs software.
- Accurate, detail-oriented, and quality-conscious.
- Proactive and solution-driven, even when things do not go as planned.
- Both independent and a genuine team player — you take ownership and collaborate constructively.
- Cost-aware and business-minded.
- Excellent communication skills in Dutch and English.
- Bachelor's level thinking, preferably with a logistics-oriented background.
What do we offer?
- A key role within a growing international company active in travel retail and logistics.
- A varied position with real operational responsibility and room to think along on projects.
- The opportunity to further develop your customs and logistics expertise in a dynamic environment.
- A flat organisational structure with fast decision-making and direct collaboration with management.
- International contacts and a diverse range of tasks.
- As you grow, the potential to take on expanded responsibilities — including a possible supervisory role for candidates with the right experience.
- A competitive compensation package in line with your profile and experience, complemented by a range of employee benefits.
