Expeditor

We are Huisman. We develop step changing technical solutions and translate these into the design and construction of the largest onshore and offshore installations. For decades, we have been working all over the world for offshore wind, geothermal, oil & gas, leisure and civil industries.

With our passionate workforce and worldwide production, service & sales facilities we are equipped for impact in these times of energy transition.

What to expect of the Expeditor position within Huisman?

Would you like to work as the ears, the eyes and the voice of Huisman? As an Expeditor, you will monitor the progress of our suppliers and, where necessary, visit them to determine whether the set deadlines are being met and know when to escalate and/or mitigate in case of deviations. You have a critical and challenging mindset and do not want to go back to the project team empty-handed. You provide the project team with complete and reliable information so that there are no costly planning surprises.

Personal development and education opportunities are part of the deal. We would also like to point out the other advantages of working at Huisman, such as the opportunity to contribute to groundbreaking innovations, an excellent employment conditions package and regular drinks in our own bar.

As an Expeditor you are responsible for:  

• Coordinating with internal stakeholders such as Engineering and QC for deadlines and external visits;
• Monitoring the progress of procured goods and services, in accordance with the purchase order;
• Ensuring delivery is in line with agreements, pushing and escalating when the project requires it;
• A proactive approach, as timely delivery is essential to the projects.

You are someone for whom 'giving up' is not an option, who likes to understand people and does not settle for incomplete answers. You are comfortable in technical organisations and know how to move between different levels, one moment on the production floor with a supplier, the next moment at the boardroom table with a manager, and you are able to maintain a professional composure at all times.

You have:

• A relevant Bachelor work and thinking level.

You are:

• Flexible, client-oriented and focused;
• Able to work with (ERP) systems;
• Proactive and persuasive;
• Practical, accurate and punctual.

• An EU passport/valid work permit for the Netherlands;
• A good command of the English language verbally and in writing.

We design and produce in-house and deliver our turn-key products to clients worldwide. Our clients choose us for our entrepreneurial spirit, skills, reliability, and innovative solutions. Examples?

Consider the Motion Compensated Platform we developed to support the construction of offshore wind farms. So, if you join Huisman make sure you are equipped for impact. In other words, surprise us, our clients and… yourself!

• Think big and make big, all in one location. At Huisman Schiedam, both our office and production facilities are based on a single site.
• An open, informal and no-nonsense culture with short lines of communication.
• An international working environment with ample opportunities for career progression and personal development.
• An excellent benefits package tailored to your experience and qualifications.
• A minimum of 29 holiday days (based on full-time employment) with the option to purchase an additional 10 days.
• Participation in a collective pension scheme in line with the Wtp.
• Eligibility for a bonus scheme.
• Access to collective health insurance, with Huisman contributing as your employer.
• Take advantage of tax benefits through our bicycle scheme.
• Huisman organises sporting activities, such as a ski trip, as well as various social events, including large-scale company parties where colleagues come together and get to know each other better.
