We are passionate about people. We believe our people are our success story. Our journey has just begun, and we know that so much still remains to be done. We are taking steps to make sustainability an integrated part of the business, making a movement from "do business development" to "Development of the business considering social, environmental and economic aspects to secure long term business continuity and profitability".
Are you ready to join the journey?
Job Description
You will join us on a disruptive ride where we will integrate sustainability fully in every aspect of business. You will be taking lead in the CA for sustainable business development and truly influence and lead others through the change. A lot of the processes and frameworks will be developed by the matrix, and your role is crucial to bring input and enable the movement: Then, how will they be implemented in your reality? How do we lead a common approach across our Category areas? In the Matrix we set the WHAT and we enable the HOW through engaging our teams and partners!
There will, of course, be a time when the journey of change has transformed into just the normal way of doing sustainable business. Does this journey ever stop, you may ask yourself? No, it does not. It is a forever process of continuous improvements.

Qualifications
We believe that you have passion and strong knowledge in either global supply chain organisations/models OR social & environmental topics connected to supply chain. In the scope of the role these go hand in hand, but we believe that you have the motivation to fill the gaps you may have along the way. The experience in both areas is an added value. You believe in the concept that sustainability and business aren't separate processes and have a wish to fully integrate our ways of working to build sustainable supplier development opportunities. You lead with IKEA Culture & values and are driven by our vision and seeing the IKEA contribution in a broader context in society.
We also believe that you:
Lead sustainable business through others by excellent communication skills, influencing and engaging.
Hold a deep understanding of the IKEA Business Model and the year cycles connecting to it.
Through a comprehensive approach, taking strategies to reality through strong leadership.
