The job itself
Sector: International Circular Economy / Sustainable Logistics
Location: West Flanders / Coastal Region (On-site)
Duration: 12-Month Full-time Assignment
Contract: Independent / Interim Management
The Client
Our client is a European market leader in sustainable packaging and reverse logistics. Despite their international scale and 1,000+ employees, they operate with a flat hierarchy and a pragmatic, down-to-earth culture. They value "straight talk" and a "can-do" attitude over corporate bureaucracy.
As a Freelance HR Partner, you will be the bridge between the office and the production site. This is a 12-month mission requiring a versatile recruiter who is equally comfortable headhunting a specialized white-collar profile as they are welcoming a new operator to the production floor.
