No, we don’t. We are a supply chain planning software company that also contracts to provide consultancy services for our customers, and this is where our consultants step in as strategic partners (as opposed to outsourced employees). Our consultants are often on the road meeting our customers and guiding them through the implementation process. And at critical times in the project cycle, particularly around the go-live, they’ll spend more time at the customer’s site than usual. So, though we do not outsource our talent, we do keep our offices close to our customers, so you’ll always have a desk.

Travel requirements vary based on the specific role you’ve chosen. While software engineers typically work primarily from our offices, consultants often engage in business trips and onsite customer meetings. For roles that involve extensive travel, such as consultants, you may spend up to 50 percent of your time on the road, depending on project requirements. Additionally, if you are working remotely, you might need to travel occasionally to the OMP office in your home country and, in some cases, even to our head office in Belgium. Your specific travel expectations will be discussed with your recruiter to ensure alignment upfront.

As a new team member, you’re in for an intensive training program. During your first months, we’ll walk you through the essentials. In our classroom trainings, you and other newcomers will get acquainted with everything you need to know. You’ll learn about supply chain basics, our commercial solution, and our organization and processes. In parallel, you’ll develop the soft and technical skills required for your job. On top of that, you’ll follow customized internal training programs connected to your role, interests, and ambitions. When your job requires specialist expertise beyond the know-how of our staff, we offer all the external training you need to be successful.

Here, you don’t just get one coach. You get two: a day-to-day coach and a personal coach. During the first six to 12 months, you’ll be working closely with your day-to-day coach. As your mentor and buddy, they’ll get you up to speed, answering all the questions you may have and filling in the blanks that your training hasn’t covered. Your day-to-day coach remains at your side until you are ready to move forward with confidence.

In parallel, your coach monitors your well-being, your progress, and your career, stimulating your personal growth and development in the long run. During monthly one-on-ones, you’ll discuss how you’re doing, where you’re headed, and how to get from point A to point B. Your personal coach will also be there to assist you with your performance reviews.
