Either way you should be passionate about managing people and have relevant experience from doing so. - Design Tools Proficiency: Skilled in design and prototyping tools such as Figma. - Research Savvy: Experience conducting user research and usability testing. - Communication Skills: Excellent communication and collaboration skills to work effectively with cross-functional teams.

Having experience with how to support the teams in this will be an important skill set. - Language: You need to speak English and one Scandinavian language fluently.
