- You manage the LMS by creating training courses, enrolling employees, monitoring compliance, and providing reports that help managers oversee progress and compliance.
- You manage the L&D mailbox by answering or forwarding questions and requests quickly and customer-friendly, ensuring colleagues always receive clear and timely support.
- You contribute to L&D projects by actively participating in discussions about content and approach. This could include developing a new training program, for example.
- You monitor progress and compliance by tracking training statuses, identifying deviations, creating reports, and supporting actions that ensure employees meet mandatory training requirements on time.
Who You Are
You feel at home in a dynamic production environment where quality and human development go hand in hand. You are analytical, strong in communication, and appreciate structure.
What You Bring
- Minimum MBO 4 or HBO level education
- Strong computer skills (Microsoft Office)
- Affinity with a production environment
- You are hands-on and proactive
- Good command of both Dutch and English, written and spoken
- You are willing to travel to our production location in Zoetermeer (this means the job is on-site at this location)
Furthermore, it is important that you can empathize well with and collaborate with others at various levels, support colleagues where necessary, and understand the impact of Learning & Development on our business processes.
