Operations Coordinator

At Vention, we’re not just building products; we’re making things work, literally. As our Operations Coordinator, you’re the one who keeps everything running smoothly behind the scenes. From purchasing parts to coordinating production schedules, you turn plans into action and chaos into structure. One day you’re following up on supplier deliveries, the next you’re streamlining a process that saves the team hours of work.

You’re the connection point between engineering, production, and finance. You make sure materials arrive on time, documentation is complete, and no detail slips through the cracks. It’s a dynamic role where you’ll touch every part of the operation and see the impact of your work every single day.

What you’ll be doing

• Coordinate daily operations and production planning to keep projects moving on schedule.

• Manage purchasing activities: request quotes, issue purchase orders, track deliveries, and maintain supplier relationships.

• Maintain accurate records of inventory, orders, and production schedules in our ERP system.

• Collaborate with teams across engineering, production, logistics, and finance to ensure deadlines and budgets are met.

• Handle administrative tasks such as documentation, scheduling, and reporting.

• Support non-product-related (NPR) activities such as invoicing, communication with accounting, and general office management.

• Identify and implement improvements to boost efficiency and streamline workflows.

• MBO+/Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience in Business Administration, Operations, or a related field.

• 3–5 years of experience in an administrative, purchasing, or operational support role.

• Proficiency with MS Office (Excel, Word, Outlook) and ERP or purchasing systems.

• Excellent communication skills in Dutch and English, both written and verbal.

• Organized, proactive, and hands-on. You don’t just spot problems; you solve them.
  
  

Whats in it for you?
