Desired candidate profile
What did we order?
- You have at least 5+ years of experience in progressive development and management of multiple product categories, matured by working for large retailers (FMCG), in an international setting.
- You have built teams and led cross-functional projects at scale.
- You are very detail-oriented, structured, and know how to prioritize — you consider yourself someone who delivers solutions and not bottlenecks to be solved.
- You are willing to do anything necessary for the project to succeed, including working on the warehouse floor when you are short-staffed to make a customer delivery or to take customer calls. No job is too insignificant, no detail is too small for you.
- You can interact with senior-level executives and manage the expectations of multiple stakeholders.
- You are energized by the unknown and look forward to learning each day on the job.
- You have excellent analytical and communication skills and always like to be hands-on with several tools.
- Additionally, you have robust interpersonal and intercultural skills.
- You can inspire several teams and stakeholders to rally behind a mission.
