Operations & Manufacturing

Your Role in Our Supply Chain

We process 10 billion kilos of milk a year into a variety of products. We own our entire supply chain: from grass to glass. From collecting the milk, to producing our products and distributing them to our customers.

Providing food for the world’s growing population is a huge challenge. We aim to serve more people, while producing less waste. At the same time, we need to secure a profitable balance between the supply of milk from farmers and product demands from consumers. Every step in our Supply Chain is vital to the success of the entire chain and of FrieslandCampina as a company. Together we assure the safety, quality and continuous improvement of our processes.

Within Operations & Manufacturing you could work for example as an Operator, Production Manager, Team Leader or as a Packaging Specialist. Every role that is necessarily to keep the factory running.

Passionate About Sustainable Packaging

"We need to make sure our packaging doesn’t harm the environment, and also prevent food from being wasted. Packaging is only really sustainable if it does both. We are working on finding new ways to work with less packaging and to make them more sustainable." - Melissa Smeets, Packaging Development Manager

All-round logistics Silvano

"At FrieslandCampina, I am all-round logistics. I started at FrieslandCampina through a temporary employment agency. Later, FrieslandCampina took me over and I got a permanent contract. I started on the reach truck, then became an operator in palletising and now all-round logistics.

I am proud of how far I have grown, but I could not have done this alone. Our team helps each other. The atmosphere here is always friendly. This ensures that I enjoy going to work. The nice thing about all-round logistics is that I learn and do new things every day. This makes every working day different." - Silvano, all-round logistics
