EasyPark Group
Country Director, Netherlands
Amsterdam
November 26, 2024
At Easy Park, we love cities. We love them for work, for play and everything in between. That’s why our mission is to make life in cities that much easier – by taking care of the parking. With the use of technology, we break barriers, helping improve the urban experience. Our aim is to create a scenario where parking supply and driver demand are balanced not due to additional parking spots and fewer cars, but thanks to predictive technology that connects our users to available spots.
The Role
As a Country Director, you will lead the Dutch Business-to-Parking-Operator commercial organization and oversee the business results of the Dutch organization. This role will be leading this region through continuous change which will ultimately drive us towards our global vision of making cities more liveable. This role plays a vital part in our Global Leadership Team, and reports into the Regional Director of the Nordics and Netherlands.
As Country Director, you'll lead the Dutch commercial Business-to-Parking-Operator (Distribution) organisation where you'll manage a team of account managers to jointly drive revenue growth, of both Saa S and transactional hardware sales. This commercial role involves analysing the local context, identifying opportunities and challenges, and creating and executing plans to address them. You will build and maintain strong relationships with key stakeholders, such as government officials, partner organisations, local communities and other customers such as public and private parking operators. To deliver on your strategy, you'll closely collaborate with senior leadership from supporting and partnering functions in the Netherlands as we work in a matrix organisation.
In your role of overseeing the Dutch business, you are responsible for the results of the whole team. You will be responsible for developing and implementing strategies to achieve organisational goals and objectives. You'll join global network of peers, who closely work together virtually in achieving commercial targets and leading according to our values. Easy Park Group is a value-driven organisation, and the Country Director must lead by example, providing leadership and guidance to the organisation's staff in the country. As such, you will lead the Dutch leadership team (who may or may not report directly to you) and you will lead the larger team through transitions in times of change.
You will contribute & make an impact through:
