Facility Manager - The Netherlands
Are you experienced in overseeing facility operations across multiple locations? And can you build and manage a strong network of facility suppliers? Then you might be the person we are looking for!
Founded in 2013 in Denmark, NORMAL is an unconventional and fast-growing retail brand. Today, we operate more than 1,000 stores across 12 countries in Europe, and we continue to expand at fast pace. Our unique concept combines well-known everyday products at low prices with a fun and surprising shopping experience, creating a retail journey that keeps customers coming back.
As we continue to expand in Southern and Central Europe, we are looking for our first local Facility Manager to support our growing store network in The Netherlands. This is a unique opportunity to join us at an exciting stage of growth and play a key role in building and managing our facility operations.
