WHY WE WILL LOVE YOU
You are that kind of person who thrives in the unknown – you see it more like a possibility, something you can investigate and learn more about. Seeking for solutions is what you do best – and especially if you are supporting others in that. You are a star in making your stakeholders describe their challenges and to understand what they really need, what lies beneath the need. We also love you because you are being proactive and are one step ahead of what is coming. Of course, you are very good in stakeholder management and building trustful relations with others, communicating, and aligning. We also think you are simplicity as a person. You are straight forward with a positive mind set. Influencing and energizing others is something you like doing.
What kind of background are we looking for?
Well, if you have a past as an Operational Leader, it is interesting. But we would also like if you would come from Business Navigation or BNOM in the stores. It will help us if you have worked with planning and following up tools like PowerBI, CODA-Cognos, planning analytics, etc. Previous Ikea experience is an added advantage.
YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES
As an Operations Leader, you will support Real Estate in Ingka towards optimal operation and performance and identify business improvement with special focus on the financial planning, forecasting and follow up of both investments and operations in all Ingka real estate assets operated by Real estate (Ingka Retail and Ingka Centres). As a team we help to identify and share best practices, develop performance analysis, and develop guidelines and tools. We mentioned it before, and here it comes again – you need to be someone who thrives in the unknown. Your first assignment is to identify the team needs and design your own assignment and what does that mean in a global context. In many cases your first step will be to help the centers of expertise in Group Real Estate to define their needs.
