Ready to drive one of Europe’s most impactful HRIS projects?
We’re looking for a Senior Project Manager to lead our Workday optimisation and Strada implementation across five European markets.
With more than 4.5 million members, Basic-Fit is scaling fast. Behind that growth is our HR foundation that needs to operate seamlessly across the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Spain, and Germany. This project will have a direct impact on our entire employee population of 8,000 people — from our club staff to our HQ teams — shaping how we work, pay, and grow together. It’s a large-scale, high-profile initiative with complexity across countries, systems, and employee types. That’s where you come in: to provide structure, drive coordination, and ensure momentum so everything runs smoothly.
YOUR MISSION
Your mission is to oversee the integrated Workday & Strada project covering HCM Core Optimisation, Time & Attendance, Integrations, Payroll Implementation, Change Management, and Communications. The project is already launched, and we’re looking for someone ready to jump on board, take ownership, and use their expertise to make a significant impact.
In this hands-on role, you ensure all workstreams move in sync — aligning timelines, managing dependencies, and translating complexity into clear progress across countries, systems, and stakeholders. You’ll report to the Project Director and act as the central link between teams, ensuring both the Workday optimisation and Strada Payroll implementation deliver real value for our people and the business.
You’ll also play a key role in establishing a sustainable governance structure, ensuring long-term alignment and accountability across teams and markets.
