Are you a proactive, solution‑oriented thinker with a passion for connecting teams and turning plans into action? If so, Kellanova has an exciting opportunity for you. We’re looking for a Sales & Operations Execution Manager to join our Benelux team in Belgium Head Office, playing a critical part at the heart of our business. This is a hybrid role giving you the flexibility to work from the office and from home.

Working cross‑functionally within Benelux and across the wider European Supply Chain, this role is all about execution, collaboration, and impact.
With a strong bias for action, you’ll help translate plans into reality, supporting the successful delivery of Benelux business plans in a fast‑moving, purpose‑driven environment where your contribution truly makes a difference.

- Reducing Risk and NPI: Proactively identify supply versus demand risks and translate insights into preventive and mitigation plans that reduce penalties and Non‑Performing Inventory.
- Creating Visibility and Insight: Provide clear, timely visibility to the Benelux business on supply constraints, demand volatility, and execution risks. By using data, dashboards, and storytelling, this role supports confident decision‑making at all levels of the organization.
- Championing ED&I and CSR: Actively support and role‑model Kellanova’s Equity, Diversity & Inclusion and Corporate Social Responsibility agenda, ensuring ways of working are inclusive, responsible, and aligned with the company’s purpose and values.
