Senior Logistics Administration Officer Venlo
Put your transport and logistics experience to work at Walker in Venlo. In this senior role, you will maintain an overview, take responsibility, and liaise extensively with customers, carriers, and colleagues.
For our Venlo location, we are looking for a Senior Logistics Administration Officer for 40 hours per week. You will work at our warehouse location, where cross-docking activities also take place. Depending on how busy it is, around 60 colleagues work at this location. You will join a department of 10 colleagues, 6 of whom perform the same role.
We work hard, but there is always room for humor. We do it together: colleagues help each other out, communicate quickly, and push through when necessary. Many colleagues have been with Walker for a long time and have developed step-by-step within the organization. We value this growth. You will receive trust, responsibility, and the freedom to organize your work effectively within clear frameworks.
What will you do?
As a Senior Logistics Administration Officer, you ensure that the administrative side of our logistics processes runs smoothly. You will have regular contact with customers, carriers, and colleagues in the warehouse. Together, you ensure that inbound and outbound shipments are properly coordinated, processed, and followed up.

Your responsibilities include:
- Coordinating the planning of inbound shipments;
- Monitoring the pick and pack process;
- Preparing and processing inbound and outbound documentation;
- Scheduling outbound orders according to the customer's planning;
- Booking transport and coordinating loading times;
- Identifying disruptions and informing customers and carriers;
- Handling and forwarding complaints;
- Processing shipments and purchasing in CargoWise for timely invoicing;
- Contributing ideas for improvements in work methods and collaboration.
What do you bring?
You maintain a clear overview, work accurately, and take ownership. When booking transport, you don't just look at what can be done quickly, but also at what aligns with customer agreements, planning, and the current situation in the warehouse. You take responsibility for your own work, but you also know that excellent logistics is always teamwork.
Furthermore, you bring:
- A minimum of 4 years of experience in transport and logistics, preferably in a warehouse, cross-dock, or supply chain environment;
- MBO+ (intermediate vocational plus) working and thinking level;
- Good command of both the Dutch and English languages;
- Good knowledge of MS Office, especially Excel;
- Experience with CargoWise is a plus;
- A customer-oriented and practical way of working;
- The drive to deliver great work together and go the extra mile.
What do we offer?
At Walker, you will get a role of 40 hours per week with responsibility, variety, and plenty of contact with operations. You will work in a committed team with short communication lines and room to further develop yourself.
Growth is important at Walker. We happily look along with you at your career path and the steps you can take within the organization.
You can count on:
- A salary that matches your experience and seniority;
- 25 vacation days based on 40 hours;
- 8% holiday allowance;
- Pension scheme;
- Travel allowance;
- Profit-sharing scheme;
- Room for development and growth;
- Trust and freedom to set up your work effectively within clear frameworks;

In addition, you bring:
- An MBO (vocational) work and thinking level, preferably Level 4;
- Ample experience within transport, freight forwarding, or logistical services;
- Experience with air freight, ocean freight, and/or road transport;
- Knowledge of customs matters and corresponding documentation;

What do we offer?
At Walker, you will get a responsible position within an international logistics organization. You will work with experienced colleagues who help each other, move quickly, and highly value quality.
We offer you:
- A position for 32 to 40 hours per week;

All-round Financial Assistant

For our finance department in Nieuw-Vennep, we are looking for an All-round Financial Assistant for 32 hours per week. You will mainly support accounts payable (creditors), but will also pitch in on accounts receivable (debtors) management and other financial activities. Monday is a fixed working day at the office.
What will you do?
You will work together with Finance Manager Shirley and your colleagues Fleur and Sjunaica. Together, you ensure that the financial administration is correct and that invoices, payments, and outstanding items are properly followed up on.
In this role, the emphasis is on accounts payable. In addition, you will assist with accounts receivable management and support other financial tasks when necessary. This keeps the workload well-distributed and allows the team to cover for each other during busy periods, vacations, or illness.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Processing, checking, and booking incoming invoices;
- Matching invoices with transport documents, accruals, and other underlying data;
- Identifying and investigating discrepancies or deviations;
- Preparing incoming invoices for payment;
- Processing and writing off bank transactions;
- Supporting accounts receivable administration and credit control;
- Booking non-operational invoices;
- Maintaining contact with suppliers and internal colleagues regarding invoices, payments, and outstanding items;
- Handling reminders and queries about invoices;
- Supporting month-end closures, audits, and financial reporting;
- Contributing ideas for a clear and reliable workflow within the administration department.
You will work in a small finance team with short lines of communication. As a result, you will quickly see what is going on and learn a lot about the financial side of transport, logistics, and supply chain services.
What do you bring?
You work meticulously and maintain an overview, even when many invoices, questions, or deadlines arrive at the same time. You don't need to know everything yet, but you think it's important to investigate things thoroughly and fulfill agreements.
We are looking for someone with:
- An MBO work and thinking level (vocational education), preferably in a financial or administrative direction;
- Experience with accounts payable, accounts receivable, or a similar financial role;
- An accurate and structured way of working;
- A sense of responsibility and ownership;
- Good communication skills towards colleagues, suppliers, and customers;
- Good command of the Dutch language;
- Basic knowledge of English, which is handy in an international logistics environment;
- Experience with Excel;
- Availability for 32 hours per week;
- Availability on Mondays, as this is a fixed working day.
Experience in transport, logistics, freight forwarding, or warehousing is a plus, but not a hard requirement. More importantly, you want to learn, dare to ask questions, and hand over your work neatly.
What do we offer?
At Walker, you will get a broad financial role in an international logistics organization. You will work in a small team where you will quickly become involved in daily operations, and where your efforts directly help to keep the administration reliable and up to date.
We offer you:
- A part-time position of 32 hours per week;
- A workplace at our office in Nieuw-Vennep;
- A salary that matches your experience and knowledge;
- 8% holiday allowance;
- 25 vacation days based on full-time employment;
- A pension scheme;
- Travel allowance;
- A profit-sharing scheme;
- A small and dedicated finance team with Shirley, Fleur, and Sjunaica, where you will quickly find your place and help each other during busy times;
- Room to further develop yourself within finance and logistics;
- Collaboration with colleagues who think practically, help each other, and adapt quickly;
- An organization where reliability, service, and personal attention are paramount.
