Know freight forwarding — and know how to make change work in daily operations?

At Ahlers, we’re looking for an Operational Excellence & Systems Adoption Lead – Freight Forwarding.

We are strengthening the way our international forwarding teams work with our new OMS/TMS.

Our ambition is clear:

And we’re looking for someone who can turn that ambition into everyday practice.

  • Work closely with local teams to understand bottlenecks and improve operational workflows.
  • Establish practical and consistent processes, with clear responsibilities and shipment milestones.
  • Help colleagues use the OMS/TMS confidently and consistently through coaching, training and hands-on support.
  • Lead improvement projects across different offices and countries.
  • Track progress and embed improvements together with local process owners and key users.
  • Solid operational experience in international freight forwarding, ideally around 5–8 years.
  • Practical experience implementing or improving the adoption of a TMS, OMS or similar forwarding platform.
  • Strong project management skills and the ability to engage people across teams and cultures.
  • The ability to see the bigger picture while still being comfortable diving into the operational details.
  • A degree in business, economics, logistics or a related field — or equivalent relevant experience.
  • Fluent English and willingness to travel internationally

We’re open to both:

An experienced independent professional for an initial 6-month assignment.
