<h2><strong>In a nutshell</strong></h2>
<p>Our Fulfilment Centers are among the most advanced of their kind, delivering fresh groceries to thousands of households every day. Next, we are planning to open our brand-new hybrid Fulfilment Center in the Berlin/Brandenburg area (Falkensee). Falkensee will be one of the first sites where we build our internal maintenance function for automated equipment. As Maintenance Operations & Continuous Improvement Manager (m/f/d), you will take strategic ownership of the performance and continuous development of our material handling equipment and maintenance processes on site.</p>
<p>You will act as the key interface between the automated and manual processes within the Fulfilment Center, the operational teams, your Maintenance team, our Engineering and Analytics teams, and external partners. You will translate overarching site goals into concrete improvement initiatives, use data to identify optimization opportunities, and ensure that equipment availability, operational efficiency, and continuous improvement remain at a high level in the long term.</p>
