PeopleOps Specialist (5 or 4 days/week)

Join us to drive success based on innovation and change 🚀

Companies invest roughly $3 trillion annually in change and transformation projects, yet around 70% of these go over budget or fail to meet their objectives. At ValueBlue, we believe this is primarily due to a lack of collaboration between stakeholders across departments. IT teams typically use highly technical tools, while business teams rely on project management platforms tailored to their specific needs, leading to silos and poor collaboration.

To solve this problem, ValueBlue developed BlueDolphin - a SaaS solution that enables and nudges technical and non-technical teams to work together on transformation journeys. BlueDolphin provides a holistic approach to enterprise architecture, simplifying a traditionally complex industry and driving successful and sustainable transformations.

We called ourselves the Architects of Change! That has to do with the fact we're in an industry that is used to describe problems and promote insights, not actually put the action hat and change things for good. We not only diagnose problems but engineer solutions that actively shape the world for the better.

In order to support our further growth, we are currently recruiting for a PeopleOps Specialist based in our Utrecht HQ.
