Director - Inbound Logistics

10 hours ago

Aarhus kommune, Denmark Arla Foods Deutschland GmbH Full time

Are you ready to take charge of a dynamic team, collecting 5 billion kg of milk from our Danish farmers, moving 1.4 billion kg of co-products between dairies and out to our customers? And are you passionate about optimizing operations, implementing innovative solutions, securing great collaboration, and ensuring health and safety for all colleagues in the organization? If yes, we encourage you to apply for this exciting career opportunity.

“If you aspire to achieve results through collaboration and be part of a company that prioritizes development in all aspects including people, digital, and sustainability, this role as Director for Inbound Logistics and Intermediate Transportation is perfect for you. We are looking for a talented candidate with some leadership experience within logistics, a broad understanding of supply chain management, and a strong emphasis on safety and sustainability,” says Senior Director of Logistics Denmark, Hasse Fensman.

How you will make an impact

You will be part of the Danish Logistics organization and responsible for leading a team of 350 engaged colleagues to ensure seamless delivery of our raw milk to dairies across Denmark.

Areas of responsibility include:

  • Leadership: You lead the department confidently and proactively with an engaging and trusting management style. You act as a role model by embodying and implementing our corporate culture. You cooperate with your colleagues in other countries to find global solutions and participate as an Arla ambassador in transport networks to influence the political transport agenda in Denmark.
  • Strategic alignment: Proactively implement the interests of the Inbound/Intermediate department in alignment with organizational objectives and in consultation with global and local stakeholders (e.g. member relations). The Inbound/Intermediate department encompasses all activities related to milk collection, intermediate transport, and our workshops.
  • Continuous improvement: Identify potential for optimization based on key figures and reports. In collaboration with service providers, expert groups, and your team, develop measures for holistic process optimization and consistently implement them. Take responsibility for their implementation to drive safety, quality, effectiveness, digitization, and automation.

Your workplace will be in Viby J, but you should expect some travel to our dairies in Denmark. In this role, you will report directly to our Senior Director of Logistics Denmark.

What will make you successful

You possess a strategic and forward-thinking mindset, with a strong emphasis on development, change management, stakeholder engagement, inclusivity, safety, and sustainability. Collaboration across departments is of great importance to you, and you actively welcome input from others.

You hold a relevant master's degree and possess 4-5 years of experience in leading large organizations. Further, to successfully deliver on key priorities and drive significant positive business impact, we believe that you have:

  • Experience from the logistics/supply chain field or transportation industry.
  • Strong communication and presentation skills.
  • Fluent English language skills, both written and spoken, and ideally Danish too.
  • Proficiency in IT tools such as MS Office and knowledge of SAP.

Additionally, you are familiar with an international, matrix-organized environment and have a sound financial understanding.

What we offer

A unique opportunity to lead an instrumental part of our value chain in a time of change.

Arla Foods is a European dairy cooperative with over 19,000 employees and nearly 12,000 farmers/owners. Our cooperative principle allows us to have a special connection with our farmers and motivates us every day to strive for the best for our farmers, colleagues, milk, consumers, and the environment.

We’re committed to professional development and promoting from within. Our positive and collaborative culture will bring out the best in you. And you’ll join a market leader who produces nutritious household-favourite brands in a way that makes things better for our customers, the farmers who own us, and the whole world.

Would you like to join us?

Please apply as soon as possible as we will process applications on a continuous basis and close the recruitment once the right candidate is found.
