Operations Finance Business Partner

As a Business Partner Operational at Unilabs Netherlands, you are the connecting link between our laboratories, the national operation and our patient collection locations. You are the sparring partner who brings financial sharpness to our laboratory organization: optimizes the execution, solves bottlenecks and helps to improve our care processes every day. You oversee the operation, from patient to result — and switch effortlessly between the lab and the management. 

Together with your fellow Business Partners, lab managers, team leaders and medical specialists, you work on optimal service provision. Not only in Amsterdam, but also at other locations in the Netherlands, you take a look behind the scenes at various laboratories. You see where there is room for improvement, come up with a solution and ensure that it is implemented. In doing so, you look not only at today, but also at tomorrow: how can we work smarter, more consistently and efficiently in the lab and at the collection locations so that our patients have the best experience.  

In an organization that is constantly on the move, you play a key role in realizing sustainable improvements. You are visible, involved and always focused on results. You ensure that we operate as one Unilabs - with an eye for quality, people and patient safety.

You help to standardize processes, prevent quality issues and maintain an overview in an environment where no day is the same.

In addition, you work daily on financial planning and strategic forecasting. You work intensively with both the operations team and the operations team at our head office. 

You also play a role in project groups around, for example, capacity planning, patient logistics or digitalization of work processes.
