Our organisation

UC Group is an entrepreneurial ecosystem of specialist companies and professionals in supply chain, logistics and production. From this collaboration, we help businesses improve their performance and deliver lasting improvements.

With UC Young Professionals, we invest in the next generation of professionals: talent that wants to develop in an environment where quality, collaboration and ambition come together.

UC Young Professionals is an independent entity within UC Group, focused on attracting, developing and supporting young professionals. The atmosphere is professional and pleasantly ambitious at the same time: we work hard, with room for development, reflection and collaboration.

Our head office is in Rotterdam, but the Young Professionals have their office and home base in Nieuwkuijk. You will also be on-site at our clients regularly to often, across the Netherlands.

What will you do?

As a mid-level engineer, you work on interesting projects that UC Group carries out for its clients. This may be directly at a client under the guidance of a senior colleague, but also in a joint team of colleagues, where you may also hold the responsibility. In such teams, you work with your colleagues to make the project a success. The seniors can make good use of your help, which is why we are looking for smart and enthusiastic professionals like you. Towards the junior engineers, you in turn play a coaching role.

The assignments we work on are for leading companies active in industrial production, Supply Chain, Retail and logistics services. The projects take place (partly) on-site at the client. Examples include:

• Carrying out data analysis and preparing reports and analyses;

• Creating presentations and presenting findings;

• Drawing up and optimising new and existing logistics concepts;

• Working out mechanisation and/or robotised solutions for our clients;

• Compiling data for documentation, such as calculations, working drawings and work instructions;

• Writing work instructions and procedures for logistics concepts;

• Carrying out Centre of Gravity / network studies to determine how logistics chains can be set up;

• Carrying out projects in which you are responsible for a sub-project.

Who are we looking for?

• You have a completed degree from a university of applied sciences or university in Logistics Management or Supply Chain Management;

• 3 to 5 years of work experience in logistics, supply chain and/or production environments;

• Naturally, your command of Dutch and English is good to excellent;

• You are analytical, creative, proactive and quick to master new things;

• You have a positive attitude and you like variety;

What do we offer?

• The chance to learn, gain experience and combine a great deal of variety in your work with the security of employment;

• A one-year contract with the prospect of a permanent contract;

• A laptop, smartphone and company car;

• An attractive bonus scheme;

• Plenty of opportunities to keep developing, for example through the UCademy;

• And above all, enthusiastic and pleasant colleagues
