As a Young Executive Operations you are responsible for successfully executing various projects in production and logistics environments. The focus is on the process side on the one hand, to devise and implement efficiency measures there, and on the people side to realize a continuous improvement culture by paying real attention to people (i.e. empathizing with the other, showing understanding, listening and exemplary leadership). at individual, team and management level).

In this role you carry out assignments in teams or independently for our clients in production and logistics environments (e.g. manufacturing, food, transport, retail, construction and maritime). Depending on the assignment, the relationship between advising, managing and implementing will vary. Each assignment is tailor-made, but we have defined four work areas: project management, process management, interim management and advice. The environment is often hectic and as a Young Executive Operations you have to quickly familiarize yourself with new material in order to solve management bottlenecks and strengthen the organization. You visit the client, you conduct research, make an analysis, recognize the problem and advise the client on a solution. Then you will make changes. Creating support and having a sense of proportion and the environment is essential.

Your development is central to us and that is why we offer an extensive 3-year management development program with various training courses and modules that ensure that you are provided with what you need to develop yourself and perform at the customer. You will also be supported by a coach and by the management of Young Executive Management. You can also fall back on knowledge and skills elsewhere within the organization, and you are part of the Operations Solution with experienced (Senior) Managers, Directors and seasoned CEOs and COOs. You also have intervision meetings to improve your content and personal level. The assignments vary in length – from a few months to sometimes a year – and are usually carried out on a full-time basis for the client. It is often an individual assignment, sometimes in a team with another Young Executive, (Senior) Manager, Director or in collaboration with an interim manager of Boer & Croon.
