Location: Almelo, Netherlands
Industry: Fashion and Apparel
Department: Supply-Chain Operations
Reports to: Head of operations
VF Corporation is a global portfolio of iconic lifestyle brands such as Timberland, The North Face, Eastpak and Vans. Across our business, we are driven by a purpose-led and performance-focused culture, with a strong commitment to people, product and operational excellence.
We believe in creating an environment where associates can grow, make an impact, and help move our brands and business forward.
Let's Talk About the Role
As Area Manager – DC Operations, you will take full ownership of one of the core operational areas within our Almelo Distribution Center (Inbound, Returns, Picking, Replenishment, VAS or Shipping).
You will translate site strategy into strong daily execution, leading multiple First Line Managers and their teams to deliver safe, reliable and cost‑effective operations.
This is a hands‑on leadership role at the heart of DC performance, requiring strong people leadership, operational judgement and the ability to perform under pressure in a high‑volume environment.
How You Will Make a Difference
Own daily and seasonal performance of your area across safety, service, quality, productivity and cost
Ensure a safety‑first culture, acting immediately on risks, incidents and non‑compliance, and role‑modelling safe behaviours
Why This Role Is a Great Opportunity
This is a role for an operational leader who wants real ownership — not coordination, but accountability.
You will have direct impact on daily results, people experience and safety outcomes, while building leadership capability that supports the long‑term success of the Almelo DC.
For strong performers, this role offers a clear pathway toward broader site leadership.
Free To Be, Inclusion & Diversity
At VF, we are committed to creating a workplace where everyone can be themselves and feel they belong.
We value diversity of thought, background and experience, and we know that inclusive teams perform better and build stronger solutions.
We encourage individuals to bring their authentic selves to work every day.
VF is an equal opportunity and affirmative action employer, providing equal opportunities to all associates and applicants.
