European automotive parts distributor operating 89 locations across Germany
Alliance Automotive Group Germany distributes OEM and aftermarket automotive parts through a five-subsidiary network (Busch, Coler, Knoll, Hennig, Voigt) spanning 89 locations. The tech stack leans heavily on Microsoft enterprise tools (Dynamics 365, NAV, Power BI, ServiceNow) — typical of large distribution operations managing inventory and multi-location logistics. Hiring is logistics-forward (65 open roles in warehousing and supply chain), reflecting the operational scale of moving parts across a national network; engineering roles barely register (2 open), indicating IT is centralized rather than product-driven.
