• Actively maintaining and further increasing your own development and knowledge.

TEAMWORK MAKES THE DREAMWORK

Our work appeals to millions of people. JCDecaux is the global market leader in outdoor advertising and functional street furniture, active in about 80 countries. You encounter us in cities like Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Brussels, Paris, and London: while waiting for the bus, just before you enter the supermarket, or when you drive through a busy intersection. Residents and visitors come into contact with our (digital) network daily, consciously or unconsciously.

JCDecaux is a true family business, and as a Supply Chain Planner, you will be part of the Facility team. The depot in Almere will become your home base and is the place where everything comes together: this is where the technical service is located, and from here, all work is set in motion. Together with your colleagues, you ensure that the flow of goods runs smoothly, materials and products are available on time, and everyone knows what to expect. In this way, you make the difference between planning on paper and perfectly executed projects on the street.
