Kick-start your career in logistics with a unique two-year trainee program!

Are you a recent graduate with a passion for logistics, supply chain, business, or engineering? Do you want hands-on experience across multiple logistics functions while developing the skills and leadership experience needed for a successful career in a global organization? If so, we would love to hear from you.

As a Logistics Trainee based in Breda, you will join a structured two-year development program designed to give you broad exposure to our logistics operations. Through a series of four six-month rotations, you will gain valuable (leadership) experience in different areas of the business, build a strong professional network, and develop the knowledge and skills needed for future opportunities within our organization.

In each rotation, you will:

  • Analyze processes and identify opportunities for improvement
  • Conduct root cause analyses and create reports to support business decisions
  • Collaborate with stakeholders across departments
  • Ensure accurate administrative follow-up and documentation
  • Work independently while managing priorities and deadlines
  • Contribute to operational excellence and continuous improvement initiatives
  • Build expertise that will enable you to support teams as a backup or future specialist in the function

You will also work closely with a dedicated mentor and maintain a personal development plan throughout the program to support your growth and career ambitions.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in Logistics, Supply Chain, Business, Engineering, or a related field

  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
  • Proactive mindset with a willingness to learn and take ownership
  • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail

What we offer

  • A structured two-year trainee program with four rotations across logistics functions
  • Exposure to a dynamic international logistics environment
  • Ongoing mentoring and professional development support
