Working as a Project Manager at GXO Logistics
To expand our Central Project Management team, we are looking for a Project Manager. In this independent, challenging role, you will work on various projects; from implementing a globally known brand in a new warehouse to managing an improvement project at an existing location. You will work within our BeNe & Nordics region (Belgium, the Netherlands and 2 Nordic countries) and report directly to the Head of Project Management. This role is based from our HQ in Eindhoven and does include travel, so a valid EU driving license is essential.

What does your day as a Project Manager look like?
In the position of Project Manager, you are responsible for managing customer-specific implementations of warehouse solutions. You will coordinate the implementation of systems, operational improvement projects, logistics engineering, automation and you will work closely with Business Development and Solutions Design teams. You switch between functional needs and technical solutions without losing sight of the different interests. You communicate clearly and stand for a high-quality result.
Working at GXO Logistics means working in a dynamic and international organization. An exciting environment where there is plenty of room for personal input and development. Employees at GXO Logistics are in charge of their own success. Whatever your role at GXO Logistics, you face new challenges every day, allowing you to develop to your full potential.
