At IKEA, our vision is to create a better everyday life for the many people. We strive to be the leader in sustainable, affordable life at home, inspiring and enabling customers to fulfil their needs and dreams at home.
In Purchasing Development, our assignment goes hand and hand with the IKEA Business Idea as we are responsible to produce a 'wide range of well-designed, functional home furnishing products at prices so low that as many people as possible will be able to afford them'.

We want to drive a revolution with the development of innovative, affordable, and sustainable materials and make that our number one business priority.

And that is where you come in!
