Consultant Supply Chain & Operations (Dutch is required)

_________

At EY, you’ll have the chance to build a career as unique as you are, with the global scale, support, inclusive culture and technology to become the best version of you. And we’re counting on your unique voice and perspective to help EY become even better, too. Join us and build an exceptional experience for yourself, and a better working world for all.

The opportunity

Globalization and technological developments rapidly change the world we live in. For many organizations, this results in complex challenges – in terms of risks as well as opportunities! The colleagues of the Supply Chain & Operations team of EY have a passion to support clients in embracing those challenges. We do this, for example, by transforming complex business processes, and structurally optimize the way our clients operate.

As part of the team, you will help our clients to bridge the gap between strategy and operational performance and with that, create long term value for the company and its customers. You will continuously be challenged on soft- as well as hard skills and will work closely with both the client and experienced EY colleagues. This way, your own development never stops!

Your responsibilities

As part of the Supply Chain & Operations team, you help organizations from various industries (FMCG, pharma, automotive, finance, public etc.) with their most complex challenges across different domains (Procurement, Logistics, Planning, Manufacturing, and Services). You will make an impact from day one. For example, by preparing and facilitating workshops for the client on key subjects like inventory management, warehouse optimization, sustainable supply chains, smart factories (Industry 4.0), or continuous process improvement (Lean/Six Sigma). In your daily work, you will also be exposed to the client frequently by conducting interviews or applying and supporting them to implement improved standard ways of working. And the next day, you are gathering and analyzing quantitative and qualitative data, and collaborate with your colleagues to present the outcome of your analysis to the client. This way, you will experience a steep learning curve. Before you know, you are the expert in the field, providing the client with training and coaching!

• A strong analytical mindset, excellent communication skills, and fluent Dutch and English language skills (both verbal as well as in writing)
• A demonstrated drive to develop yourself continuously, for example, through a relevant internship or side-job, a board year, or other extra-curricular activities

Are you eager to develop yourself as a consultant and within the Supply Chain & Operations domain specifically, and can you convince us that we could take you with us to the client as of tomorrow? Then we are pleased to welcome you as our new colleague!
