Together with the team, you determine priorities and ensure that questions are picked up and answered correctly and completely  arrange urgent orders with your team down to the last detail, just like making sure documentation is in order and available to the right people in the chain. That’s emailing and calling, proactively thinking and thinking along. You also make sure that everything is properly recorded in our systems, so that invoice control and performance management are possible.

Periodically you make performance reports for the customers and the carriers, or you are busy with analyses and rate management is a task. Finding the solution together, that’s what it’s all about.

So you will be a real specialist and sparring partner for our customers and the carriers.

Depending on your interests and ambitions, you can also take on tasks in the area of quality or carrier management. And otherwise for example application management. And besides we are growing healthily, do you see opportunities for IDS? Tell us and we’ll see if we can develop it together. That way you can grow personally!

Where you will do that? At our beautiful office in De Meern. Accessible by bus and excellent free parking on our own grounds. There we have really good coffee ( or tea ), we provide part of the lunch, there is fruit and we make sure you have the right tools to enjoy working. Of course we also organize fun activities outside working hours and you can use Goodhabitz, the online learning platform with lots of useful and enjoyable training courses.

This is how you keep developing yourself at IDS!
