Then the position of Manager Utilities at FrieslandCampina in Borculo is your next step!

• Leadership: Coaching, inspiring, and developing your team within a culture of continuous improvement.
• Safety & quality: Overseeing compliance with laws and regulations regarding (food) safety, environment, and technical compliance.
• Sustainability & energy transition: Contributing to FrieslandCampina's sustainability goals by initiating and realizing energy and water saving projects.
