About the program
Within the strategy program of the Global Supply Chain our client is looking for a Change manager for the key transformative initiative. The program stands for 'Strategy Towards Success' and is designed as the journey to become the number 1 Global Supply Chain.

- In this project you will work closely together with the core project team consisting of experts from the F&B Excellence team, IT, Program management and Deployment Leads.
- As Change Lead you are the linking pin between the local deployment team within the specific OpCo, the Deployment Lead and the core project team assuring global consistency (especially communication, tools and approach) and make sure that best practices are shared.
