Warehouse & Logistics Specialist
Gouda, Netherlands. Full time, 40 hours per week. Budget Parts B.V.
Budget Parts is a specialist supplier of original and aftermarket Land Rover and Range Rover parts, serving enthusiasts and professional workshops across the Netherlands and Europe. We have been doing this for over 25 years, with staffed warehouses in Gouda and Drachten and around 98 percent stock availability across our range. We physically stock, pick and ship most in stock orders the same working day, and we are Trusted Shops certified.
What sets us apart is simple: we hold real stock, we know the parts, and we get them out the door fast. That depends entirely on a sharp, well run warehouse, backed by smart in-house systems we have built to take the admin load off the team.
- Warehouse first role: around 80 percent warehouse and logistics, 20 percent order processing and parts advice
- Based in our Gouda warehouse, working alongside Sebastian and reporting to our location manager, Jack
- Full time, 40 hours over 5 weekdays, no weekend work and no overtime
- Good working Dutch and English both needed
What the job involves
This is a warehouse first role. You are the person who keeps stock accurate, locations tidy, goods moving in and orders moving out. You will work alongside Sebastian in the Gouda warehouse and report to our location manager, Jack.
The job is around 80 percent warehouse and logistics and 20 percent order processing and parts advice. You do not need to be a Land Rover expert, but you do need to be practical, organised, technically minded and happy on your feet for most of the day.
ResponsibilitiesWhat you will do
Warehouse and logistics (your main focus)
- Receive incoming supplier shipments, check them against purchase orders and packing lists, and flag any shortages or damage
- Put stock away in the correct warehouse and bin locations, keeping our stock data accurate
- Consolidate stock, merge duplicate locations and keep the warehouse clean, logical and easy to pick from
- Pick orders accurately and help with packing and dispatch, especially during busy periods
- Process returns, check returned parts and restock or quarantine them correctly
- Run and support stock counts and cycle counts to keep inventory accuracy high
- Spot and suggest improvements to layout, picking routes and stock processes. This role exists partly to keep optimising, not just to maintain
- Keep packing stations and shipping materials stocked and the dispatch area orderly
Order processing and parts advice (supporting)
- Process webshop and trade orders and book dispatch through our couriers
- Help customers find the correct part using VIN numbers, vehicle details and parts catalogues
- Answer phone and email queries from trade and retail customers and adapt your tone to each
- Handle fitment questions, warranty cases and the occasional "this part does not fit" with a calm, solution first approach
We have invested heavily in our own intelligent in-house systems that handle most of the administrative side of this work. You will be trained on these, so the focus stays on the parts and the customer rather than paperwork.
What we are looking for
Must have
- Hands on warehouse, logistics or parts experience, ideally in automotive, technical or industrial goods
- Accurate, organised and confident learning new software (we will train you fully on our own systems)
- Comfortable with regular heavy lifting and physically active work throughout the day
- Good working Dutch and English. We operate in English internally, most of our customers are Dutch, and we ship across Europe, so you need both
- A practical, technical mindset and the confidence to learn a large product range
Nice to have
- Automotive or technical knowledge and the ability to read parts catalogues. This is a real plus for the order processing and customer advice side
- Experience improving stock or warehouse processes in a previous role
- Forklift certificate (heftruckcertificaat). Not required, we can train you, but a bonus
What we offer
- A full time role in a specialist, hands on company where your work directly affects how fast customers get their parts
- Modern, intelligent in-house tools that take the admin load off you, so you can focus on the real work
- A small, knowledgeable team and short lines of communication
- A salary that is marktconform and in line with your experience
- 8 percent holiday allowance (vakantiegeld)
- 24 holiday days on a full time contract
- Travel allowance in line with company policy
- A 12 month contract with a one month trial period, with the intention of a permanent contract on good performance
- Set weekday hours with no weekend work and no overtime
- Full training on our systems and the product range
Hours, location and start
- Location: Gouda, Kampenringweg 13
- Hours: 40 hours per week over 5 weekdays, no weekend work
- Start date: as soon as possible, ideally with a short handover period
